Can't access my S17+ through the web browser

So I don't have a home router. I'm just connecting my laptop directly to the miner using a usb to ethernet setup. I've got this USB to Ethernet Dongle on my laptop, and I set it up with a static IP of 192.168.2.101 in /etc/network/interfaces. When I plug in the miner, the dongle interface activates, but when I try to access 192.168.2.101 in my browser, it just won't connect. I can ping 192.168.2.101 and it replies back. I also tried connecting via root@192.168.2.101, which does prompt for a password, but I have no clue what the password is for SSH. Any ideas on why I can't get into the miner through the browser?
