Connect Pearl 2 to a laptop

How can I connect my Pearl 2 to a laptop for times when I want to use the web interface but I’m not connected to a network?

You can do a direct connection from computer to Pearl using the Ethernet connection and changing the computer’s network settings to the Persistent Static IP settings found here in the user guide:
