Configuration Manager
The Configuration Manager is an alternative method to control WiFi
settings and other options if you have not downloaded the app. The
Configuration Manager also includes some additional device settings
for the advanced user as discussed below. Most users don’t need to use
the Configuration Manager if they use the Network Management App.
You might need to use the Configuration Manager if:
•
You want to set up special Internet gaming settings.
•
You want to get performance information about the MG8702 modem
and/or built-in router. This can be helpful in diagnosing DOCSIS
performance issues and optimizing wireless performance.
•
You want to set up a Virtual Private Network (VPN).
•
You want to change the wireless network name and password without
using the App. (See WiFi setup page.) Note that these WiFi settings
can be changed in the app without having to log in to the
Configuration Manager.
If you need to access the MG8702 Configuration Manager, open your
Web browser. Type https://192.168.0.1 in the address bar, and press
Enter. You will see security warnings. You can safely ignore these and
click through to access the Configuration Manager (see Note below). In
the login dialog box, type the following username and password in
lower case, then click OK.
Username: admin
Password: <unique password printed on modem’s label>
