There are two ways to connect your Xbox to the Razer Sila: 

  • Connect with Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) enabled (recommended)
  • Connect without enabling UPnP.

To connect your Xbox with UPnP enabled, follow the steps below:

  1. Setup a Static IP address for the console (DHCP Reservation). This ensures that the IP address for the console is always the same.

    1. Type Sila.Razer.com or 192.168.8.1 into your web browser.
