I followed this tutorial and everything worked up until the 7:55 mark. After I do the setup process at 172.16.0.254, it completes sucessfully. I arbitrarily set the static ip to 192.168.1.69, and then manually set the ipv4 address of the ethernet port (with the control panel in windows and then I tried the whole process again both with ubuntu and raspian, so I manually set the ipv4 addresses with their respective settings), but the regular switch settings page does not load after I do this, it doesn’t even show the accept the risk and continue warning like with the setup process ip address.

What am I doing wrong? I’m very new to networking technology and I don’t even know the words of what I would need to look up to solve this, because anything I’ve looked up so far hasn’t helped.
