If you’re working with the GNS-5660, a pre-configured high-speed 60 GHz wireless bridge using MikroTik nRAY60, here’s how to properly change the IP address for each radio.

Mikrotik nRay60

While Quick Set might be the first screen you see after logging into the Mikrotik nRay60, do not use it to change IP addresses. Instead, always make IP modifications through WebFig > IP > Addresses. This ensures the settings are correctly applied and don’t conflict with routing or bridge configurations.

Default Login & IP Address Info (Pre-Configured)

Each GNS-5660 bridge kit from GNS Wireless ships pre-configured:

  • Source Bridge IP: 192.168.1.251

  • Remote Bridge IP: 192.168.1.252

  • Username: admin

  • Password: Admin1234

Step-by-Step: Changing the IP Address

  1. Login via WebFig

    Connect to the GNS-5660 bridge via Ethernet. In your browser, go to:

    • http://192.168.1.251 for the source unit

    • http://192.168.1.252 for the remote unit

    Use the login:

    • Username: admin

    • Password: Admin1234

  2. Enter WebFig (Not Quick Set)

    Once logged in, click “WebFig” in the top menu to access advanced settings.

  3. Navigate to IP Settings

    On the left menu, go to:

    IP > Addresses

  4. Edit the IP Address

    • Click the pencil icon next to the current IP to change it

    • Example: 192.168.10.1/24 on ether1

    • Leave the Interface default as bridge.
    • Change the Network to match your Subnet range

  5. Apply and Save

    Click Apply, then OK to save your changes.

  6. Reconnect Using the New IP

    Your session may end—log back in using the new IP address.

Why Use WebFig Instead of Quick Set?

Quick Set is a simplified setup wizard. But for advanced devices like the nRAY60, using Quick Set can lead to partial settings changes, which may cause connection issues or routing conflicts. WebFig gives you full control and applies changes properly across all system layers.
