The user manual for the Soundwin SR200 isn't available on the Internet
(you have to email the company), so I can only guess from the data sheet.
As I understand the datasheet, the SR200 can be a "PPPoE client, DHCP
client, [or] Fix[ed] IP Address." Which of these modes you use depends
on how you will connect the device. If you connect it to a DSL modem
that is not also a router, you will probably want to use PPPoE mode. If
you connect it to a router (whether the router is a stand-alone device
or part of your DSL "modem"), you will probably want to use DHCP mode.
From your description, it sounds as if the default for the SR200 is to
be in static IP mode, with IP address = 192.168.1.1 and subnet mask =
255.255.255.0. If this is correct, then you can access it in one of two
ways:
1. *Disconnect* your switch from your router. Then connect the SR200 to
an available port on the switch.
2. On one of your computers, go to Network Connections, right click on
the icon for "Local Area Connection" and select "Properties." Under the
heading "This connection uses the following items," select "Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP)" and click "Properties." On the "General" tab, click
the radio button to "Use the following IP address" and enter an IP
address of 192.168.1.100 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You can
leave the Default gateway blank. OK your way out.
3. Follow steps 2-5 that you listed under "How to configure SR-100/SR-200?"
4. When you are finished, don't forget to go back and reset your
computer's Local Area Connection to "Obtain an IP address Automatically."
Alternatively, instead of step 1 above, you can disconnect one of your
computers from the switch and connect it directly to the SR200.
Depending on what electronics are installed in the SR200, you may or may
not have to use a special "cross-over" cable instead of the regular
cable that you use to connect the computer to the switch.
Note: The subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 listed under "Quick Start" probably
is a typographical error. It probably should be 255.255.255.0.
