Opening the web interface

Using sharkrf.link

You can use the webpage SharkRF Link to easily open the web interface of the device. Enter the Device UID (you can find this ID on the sticker at the back of the device or on the About screen), then click on the Connect button.

All entered device UIDs will be saved in your web browser’s local storage so you don’t have to enter them again. Just click on each of your saved M1KE’s Connect button to open their web interfaces.

Important

Both your computer/tablet/phone with which you’ve opened SharkRF Link and the M1KE need to be connected to the exact same Wi-Fi® network.

Adding the web application to your phone’s home screen

You can also add the SharkRF Link page as a web application (note that this is not the same as the SharkRF Link app), described below) to your phone’s home screen by clicking on the Add to Home screen button at the bottom of the page on your mobile phone’s browser.

If you are using an iPhone® and the Add to Home screen button does not appear at the bottom of the SharkRF Link page, you can use the following method to add the web app icon to your home screen:

1. Open SharkRF Link in the browser

2. Click on the iPhone®’s Share icon at the bottom

3. Click on the Add to Home screen button

Other ways

You can also open the web interface by entering http://m1ke.local/ or http://m1ke/ or the device’s IP address into the web browser.

You can find the device’s current IP address on the Network status screen.

The recommended way is to use SharkRF Link to open the web interface.

Important

Both your computer/tablet/phone and the M1KE need to be connected to the exact same Wi-Fi® network.

Note

If the web interface does not open, then check if the M1KE is connected to the Wi-Fi® network by looking at the Status Icons Section on the screen, or on the Network status screen. You can also find the device’s current IP address on this screen.

Note

If http://m1ke.local/ and http://m1ke/ do not work on your non-Android® device then make sure multicast data is not disabled on your Wi-Fi® network.Some Wi-Fi® access points and routers have multicast data disabled by default. This is required for LLMNR and MDNS name resolving.

Some Android® phones do not support LLMNR or MDNS name resolving so these addresses won’t work. In this case use SharkRF Link or enter the IP address of the M1KE into the browser to open the web interface.

Also check the Wi-Fi® client isolation (or similarly named) setting in your Wi-Fi® router’s configuration. It should be turned off.

Note

IP addresses are assigned by your router to the M1KE, and they may change.
