It isn't easy to find. Maybe you could submit/recommend a change to the FAQ. Either modify this section or create a similar section for the Android or a generic wireless section.

Most of us use the IP of our computer, for a home network it is usually something like this http://192.168.1.2:8080/ replace the 2 with the actual number of your computer.

The url is listed on the start page (see attached). Maybe it would be better to not list it specifically associated with Stanza. Or, if possible, bolding that url would draw more attention to it.
