Via the "Relay IP".
This should be displayed on the overview page (in the most recent versions).

This will be the same address that the host router hands out to it via DHCP

Thank you

It would be good if it said "Gargoyle Router" or something

I'll look at getting it to announce itself to the host router. It shouldn't be hard.
But on the bridge router Status->Overview page you should see relay IP.

yeah but if I understand this correctly this is only found on the bridge/repeater router which I'm trying to find the IP of?
