The WP85 module on a MangOH board can use an Ethernet connection to a local area network to configure the IP addresses.

Connect the serial, Ethernet, and power cables

In a terminal, run:

minicom /dev/ttyUSB0

Press enter when Minicom starts.

Sign on as root user (no password required).

Press enter when prompted for a password.

Run ifconfig (or ip addr). It should display something like this:

root@swi-mdm9x15:~# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 9E:90:7C:6D:BE:9B
          inet addr:10.1.28.211  Bcast:10.1.28.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::9c90:7cff:fe6d:be9b/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:43357 errors:0 dropped:107 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3975 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:14481736 (13.8 MiB)  TX bytes:718334 (701.4 KiB)

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:65 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:65 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:3608 (3.5 KiB)  TX bytes:3608 (3.5 KiB)

If it doesn't display an eth0 inet address, try rebooting the target (easiest is to disconnect and reconnect power cable), and run ifconfig again.

Or you can run ifdown eth0 and then if up eth0, to stop and restart the Ethernet connection.

You should be ready to ssh to your target IP - the subnets should match.
