Air!Scout Network Connectivity
USB Network
Air!Scout provides USB network connectivity. On Windows 7, Windows 10, IOS and Linux it will install a network adapter. In this mode, Air!Scout is accessible under http://air-scout.radar or http://192.168.73.1
This is the easiest way for users of above operating system to access and configure the Air!Scout.
Note: In order to get the 2D maps, either the host PC must have an internet connection or the Air!Scout has to be connected to internet via wired LAN or as a WiFi Client.

As a regular network device, Air!Scout can be connected to a ethernet LAN. By default it uses DHCP and is accessible under http://air-scout.local http://air-scout.fritz.box or under its IP address, which can be monitored in the OLED screen. Static IP address can be configured in the web configuration menu, too.
WiFi Client Connection

In order to avoid network cables, or whereever a LAN cable is not feasible, Air!Scout is able to connect as a client to a wireless network. The configuration dialogue provides the network SSID and password. Static WiFi IP address is possible, too.
