Accessing the Console
You can change the setting in the console to modify the functionality of the NR304G-4W unit.
The NEXPEED NR304G-4W provides CLI (Command Line Interface) in the text mode to setup
and operate built-in functions, which can be used after the console is connected.
You can access the console through a serial connection or an Ethernet connection.
Serial Connection
For a user of a serial connection, you connect a console cable to your computer and the
NR304G-4W’s console port. You then use any communication program that supports
vt100 emulation(HyperTerminal or Zterm) to communicate directly with the NR304G-
4W through the computer’s COM port.
Note:
If random or illegible characters appear on your display, you probably have a
communications-setting problem. Mask sure that your communications software is
configured as follows :

Telnet Connection
Once the NR304G-4W has been configured with an IP address, you can use the IP
address to open a Telnet session with the unit from any workstation on the same
Ethernet network. The NEXPEED NR304G-4W can be configured using a program that
supports Telnet protocol. If the system uses Windows 95 or 98 as an operating system,
all you need to do is just to run the Telnet application in the folder or run the Telnet
program in the Start menu. Like the Telnet, you can run the execution program in the
folder where software packages supporting the Telnet protocol were installed.
