I recently installed an IPOffice 500 v2 Basic Edition Partner Version box. I connected the LAN port on the IPOffice box to a network that has a DHCP server on it. The instruction sheet that comes with the IPOffice box says that its default LAN IP address is 192.168.42.1. I was not able to ping from my PC to that address. Yes I manually set my PC to 192.168.42.99. The instruction sheet also says the IPOffice box will take an address from a DHCP server if one is available on the network. I think that address is in the 10.x.x.x range.

Short of having to connect to the IPOffice box with a serial cable, how can I reset the LAN port of the IPOffice box back to its default value of 192.168.42.1?

I tried disconnecting the IPOffice box from the network and rebooting it, but that does not seem to have reset the LAN port to its default ip address.
