Is your laptop and router on the same network as the Ant?
From your laptop, do an ipconfig, and confirm it's also a 192.168.1.x address first.
Its not the same how do I change it and should the Ethernet cable be plugged in the router or my laptop
First take note of what your Laptop IP is and what your Router IP is(Gateway usually ending in .1) by doing an Ipconfig on the laptop.
Connect an ethernet cable directly from your laptop to the Antminer. On your laptop, change your laptop Network Adapter setting(not wifi adapter) from automatic to manual or static IP address on same network as Antminer. This is usual in Network and Sharing, Network connections, Local Area Connection, Properties, IPv4. Make it like 192.168.1.123 or something, Subnet mask 255.255.255.0, and Gateway 192.168.1.1 then hit OK and OK again.
Give it a few seconds to connect to the Antminer network, then go to a browser and go to 192.168.1.99. Log into the Antminer then go to Network, Interfaces, WAN, Edit. Change the IP to a free IP on the same network your laptop and router is on, make sure the gateway is the same IP as your router IP, leave mask alone, then make custom DNS 8.8.8.8
Click Save and Apply, give it a minute or so, then unplug ethernet cable, set your Laptop back to Automatic IP.
Once your laptop back on the same network as router, open browser then go to Antminer new IP and login, configure Miner configuration with pool address and worker info, and you should be on your way.
Good luck,
