You need another computer with a browser to access this website inside your Zynthian.

You can access the Webconf tool from any computer using a web browser. Your Zynthian Box must be connected to your local network, or directly to your computer with an Ethernet cable (link local, point to point).
   −
Browse to '''http://zynthian.local'''
+
To connect your Zynthian Box to your local network you can use an Ethernet cable connected from your router to your Zynthian Box. Also, if WiFi has been configured previously in your Zynthian, you should be able to connect by WiFi.

This will display a list of devices and IP addresses for things your computer knows about on your 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'''.
   −
Now browse to '''http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx''' (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx represents the IP address of your Zynthian)
