Configure the 403 with your laptop connected directly, configuring the IP settings as required to plug it into your LAN. Then, DO NOT erase the config, just connect the uplink.
Oh yeah - you want the 403 set to a static IP address.

Yeah, I think the control unit either getting an IP address from exisiting DHCP server or acts as a DHCP server. In either way, should I be able to find it using my laptop?
You mean I should configure IP settings before plugging into LAN?
If I set a static IP address to the control unit, it will not contact DHCP server to lease one, right?
Thanks. I am totally pissed off !
