Accessing the web interface using a Wi-Fi connection

The router’s settings are accessed using the built in web interface. The web interface can be accessed using a wireless connection to a mobile device or PC/laptop.

Important

  • Supported browsers — The web interface can be accessed using the following supported browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari. Internet Explorer (IE) is NOT supported. If you experience problems using generic browsers on a mobile device, try using one of the listed supported browsers instead.

  • IP address — Your device’s IP address must be in the same range as the router’s IP address. By default, most Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections are configured to obtain an IP address automatically, via DHCP. This will ensure your device’s and router’s IP addresses are in the same range. If your device is assigned a static IP address then it must be in the same range as the router’s IP address. Your router’s IP address can be found on an MFD’s Network settings tab: Homescreen > Settings > Network. Then select Raymarine Yachtsense Link from the list of network devices, and select the Product Info option., Alternatively, you can use a network discovery tool to identify the router’s IP address.

  • VPNs — Some VPNs can block access to the router’s web interface. If you use a VPN, ensure it is disconnected before trying to access the web interface.
