Naviagte to the Ethernet IP settings in the configuration menu

If the SA380TX is obtaining its IP address using DHCP, the IP settings screen will appear as below with "DHCP" written in the the highlighted button. To enable a direct connection, you need to change this to a static IP as shown by pressing this button such that it says "Static".
