Factory Reset Manual explanation

Since I had a loose nut behind the touch screen ( me the operator . hi hi ) I had to do a factory reset. The manual said to hold the power button in until it started flashing white but it never did. Went from Solid green holding it then changed to solid white so I let it go. The factory reset didnt appear to work but whatever I did solved the comm problem I created by trying to assign a static ip address for future use on my non internet network. So if I want to assign the 6400m a static ip how will it work since what happened was the front panel quit communicating with the rest of the radio computer by the internal radio network.
