Hi,

no you won't have to change the default IP address of 192.168.200.1 to have connection to you WIFI network. This IP address is set for the LAN interface eth0 (left ethernet port of an IOT2040).

If you are adding a USB-WIFI dongle it creates an own network interfaces called wlan0. You have to use this one for the connection to your WIFI router. 

How to do this is described here.

Best regards!

 Is it possible to bridge the eth0 and wlan0 networks?
