Getting Started with the Configuration
STEP 1
Connect a computer to a numbered LAN port on the router. Your PC will become a
DHCP client of the router and will receive an IP address in the 192.168.1.x range.
STEP 2
Start a web browser. To use the configuration utility, you need a PC with Internet
Explorer (version 6 and higher), Firefox, or Safari (for Mac).
STEP 3
In the address bar, enter the default IP address of the router:
192.168.1.1
STEP 4
When the login page appears, enter the default user name
admin
and the default
password
admin
(lowercase).
STEP 5
Click
Login
. The
System Summary
page appears.
The router’s default settings are sufficient for many small businesses. Your Internet
Service Provider may require additional settings. On the
System Summary
page,
check the WAN Status to see if the router was able to receive an IP Address. If not,
continue to the next step.
