Wireless Network Configuration
When your installer leaves your home after setting up your Home Network Gateway, your
network will be configured and functional.
There are a few settings that you may want to alter at some point in the future that are
accessible from the Gateway’s eRouter website at
http://192.168.0.1
The default user name to log in to the website is
Admin
. Your installer should leave you with
information about the login password.
You may, at some point, want to change the following settings:
SSID: The default SSID for your router is taken from the Wave Home Network Gateway serial
number on the bottom of the Gateway Server. You have the option to change the SSID to a
more friendly, recognizable name.
Passphrase: The passphrase for your wireless network is printed on the label on the bottom
of your Home Network Gateway Server. You may want to change this passphrase initially
to something more secure. In addition, you may want to change it periodically to maintain
security levels.
RF Channel: If you’re experiencing interference from a neighbor’s wireless network, for
example, try changing the RF channel frequency.
If, at any point, you forgot your SSID or passphrase and need to access them to add additional
devices to your network, you can use the reset button to reset the router to default settings.
See the previous section for details.
Connecting Devices to Your Network
If you are using a wireless network, you will need to enter the SSID and passphrase to connect
additional devices. Each device that you connect should have instructions on where to enter
this information.
If you are using a wired network, you may need to configure the TCP/IP settings on the
computers you are connecting after you attach the Ethernet cable.
