The 450U-E has a built-in web server, for configuration and diagnostics. The preferred web browser is Microsoft®
Internet Explorer version 7 or greater. This program is shipped with Microsoft Windows or may be obtained freely via the
Microsoft® website or Google Chrome which is also downloadable from the web. Other browsers may not be fully
compatible on all Beta web pages.
Note: Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 6 will not load web pages due to a compatibility issue
between IE6 and SSL-security web sites.
Default Configuration
The 450U-E will temporarily load factory-default settings if powered up with the Factory Default switch (on the end-plate
of the module) in SETUP position. When in SETUP mode, wireless operation is disabled. The previous configuration
remains stored in non-volatile memory and will only change if a configuration parameter is modified and the change
saved.
Do not forget to set the switch back to the RUN position and cycle power at the conclusion of
configuration for resumption of normal operation.
The default factory configuration of the 450U-E is
Client / Bridge
IP address192.168.0.1XX, where XX is the last two digits of the serial number (the default IP address is shown
on the printed label on the back of the module)
Netmask 255.255.255.0
Accessing Configuration for the first time
Because the Default IP address is in the range 192.168.0.XXX it may not connect to you network or PC so there are two
methods for accessing the configuration for the first time.
Method 1 - Change your computer settings so that the configuring PC is on the same network as the 450U-E with
factory default settings. This is the preferred method and is much less complicated than the second method. You will

450U-E. The factory default Ethernet
address for the 450U-E is 192.168.0.1XX where XX are the last two digits of the serial number (check the label on the
back of the module).
Method 2 - Requires temporarily changing the IP address in the 450U-E via an RS232 connection such that it is
accessible on your network without having to change your PC network settings. When connected you be able to change
the modem network settings to match that of your network.
