* Input your required ip address
* Click `Apply` and `Reboot` to reboot the Vio system to apply the new IP address

{% hint style="danger" %}
⚠️ **Warning:** Do not set the payload address to network class **55**, as it will conflict with the VIO default network class.
{% endhint %}

#### **1.2 Change IP address via Ethernet connection**

* If you are done changing the IP address and have already connected the Vio payload to your system via Ethernet connection, You can change the url to connect to the Vio Setting app,`http://<vio_ip>:8000`
* Do the same steps in Section 1.1, and then you can let Vio init with the new IP address.

### **2. Troubleshooting**

#### **2.1 The host PC running Windows can not recognize the Vio payload via USB connection**

* Its because the Windows platform was not fully compatible with the Vio platform
* Please try to set a static ip address for the host PC,IP`192.168.55.2`
