** '''User Interface'''
+
* Browse to '''http://zynthian.local'''. This doesn't work in all devices. Many Windows-PCs and mobile devices don't fully support the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS mDNS] protocol that enable the use of named addresses on a local network.

* If you your browser can’t find the '''zynthian.local''' address, you will then need to figure out what IP address has been assigned to your Zynthian Box. For more details, see [[Finding your IP address]]. Once you have your Zynthian's IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), you can browse to '''http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'''. Easy!
