Chapter 1 Introduction
The powerful bintec R232a, bintec R232aw, bintec R232b and bintec R232bw gateways
enable you to connect small networks in a cost-effective way and connect your individual
workstation or small company to the internet and to other partner networks (e.g. a company
head office).
This chapter describes the outstanding features your new bintec gateway offers. It
provides you with an overview of the ways in which your bintec gateway can be used. This
chapter also tells you about the structure and contents of this manual.
Safety precautions
The safety precautions, which are supplied with your device, tell you what you need to take
into consideration when using your bintec gateway.
Installation
How to connect your device is shown in
on page 9. This chapter also tells you
what preliminary tasks are necessary for configuration.
Configuration
How to get your device running is explained in
on page 13. There we show
you how to start up your device within a few minutes from a Windows PC with the help of a
Configuration Wizard and how to install other useful online assistants. At the end of the
chapter, you will be in a position to surf the Internet, send or receive e-mails and set up a
connection to a partner network to access data at your company head office, for example.
Password
If you are already familiar with configuring bintec devices and want to get started right
away, all you really need to know is the factory default user name and password.
User Name:
admin
Password:
funkwerk
Caution
Remember to change the password immediately when you log in to the device for the
first time. All bintec devices are supplied with the same password, which means they
are not protected against unauthorised access until you change the password. How to
change the passwords is described in chapter
on page 88.
