I changed the port in the 1216h software from 80 because it's being used.  When I change it I cannot gain access to the unit from its local IP address.

When changed back yo 80 all is okay.

Tried to port forward but clearly don't understand enough about it.

Thanks


so can you access the 1216H on thew same network?
So if you change the port to say, 8076 then in the web broswer you put the ip address with the port
such as 192.168.0.200:8076

I am not sure what you are asking. You can have many devices in a single network, but you
must always change port 80 to something else and forward that port. You must also use the
:XXXX after the URL when accessing that port.

Another trick is to use the port forwarding function in some routers to leave it as port 80 inside
of the network, but something different outside. In that case leave will have two fields with a
from and to in the router. You put 80 to 80 in one and the other number in both spaces on the
second field. Using this method, you can access them internally using only the internal IP address
with the port suffix. From outside, do as in the last method and append the external IP address with
the port suffix.
