Dimmer D8 lost Ethernet connection after reset
#1
Question 
Hi! I was just setting up a KC868-D8 dimmer controller that I bought some time ago.

Initially, it came up without problems, and I was able to control the one dimmer circuit I attached to it using the Web interface. Cool . It got an IP from the DHCP server in the LAN, I have it configured to give addresses in the 172.22.0.0/16 range.

Then I changed the passwords, since I don't like to have default passwords around for security. The server came back up again, but I couldn't log in, though I'm pretty sure I entered the correct password. So, thinking it would reset the password, I hit the reset button.

But now to the biggest problem: It does not connect to my network now.

I see no traffic from it in my logs, it doesn't contact the DHCP server, its MAC is listed as incomplete with arp, and there is also no response at 192.168.1.200:4196 (which is not strange, since that address wouldn't be allowed in my network).

What could be the reason for this and how do I fix it?

Could it possibly be that it insists on the 192.168.1.200 address, and so it doesn't ask the DHCP server?
