ETC Element Network Setup

Question

Hi guys, 
 I'm trying to set up a network so that I can use the RFR app with the element in my theatre. Looking through the set up documents in ETC website and various posts on the forums I think im getting there. However every time I try it still doesn't seem to work. I've attached some pictures to show what I have done and just wanted to check it looked alright? 
 As its not clear from the pictures I have DHCP turned on, on both the console and router (Not sure if this is right as looking online I kept getting different answers) 
 Console: ETC Element V2.6.3 
 App: iRFR Classic 
 Router: Wavlink N300

There are really two different ways you can set this up, which is why there is a lot of confusion. It looks like you probably have a hybrid of the two which is why its not working for you 
 
 On the back of the router the ethernet sockets will be labeled with one being the WAN or wide area network or internet. 
 If you plug the element into that one then you would set things up as follows 
 Both the element and the router should have dhcp enabled (and everything else just the default it would have setup when you put it in router mode - if you played with its settings reset it to factory default) 
 Your iphone when connected to the router, if everything is correct, will get a router assigned address like 192.x.x.x not 101.x.x.x 
 You should then be able to connect to the console with its IP address as your photo 101.101.101.101 
 
 The alternative is to plug the element not into the WAN port but that may take a bit more config, in that case you would setup as follows 
 turn off dhcp on the router - again make sure everything else is as the factory default 
 assign a static address to the router 101.101.101.1 mask 255.255.0.0 to match how you have set the element (if you dont do this you may not be able to connect to it to configure if needed) 
 When your iphone connects to the route check to see if it was assigned an address like 101.101.50.x 
 If it gets that then you should be able to connect to the console with its IP address as your photo 101.101.101.101 
 
 Let us know how you get on either success or if it fails where

Reposted this and will delete the original (if I can) as for some reason edit option is no longer showing and I need to correct the 101 that should have been a 10 as Todd pointed out, as its confusing enough without my mistype !!
