Alternate Setup Method
The Web-Based Advanced User Interface is a web-based tool that you can use
to set up the Router if you don’t want to use the Setup Assistant Software. You
can also use it to manage advanced functions of the Router. From the Web-
Based Advanced User Interface, you can perform the following tasks:
• View the Router’s current settings and status
• Configure the Router to connect to your ISP with the settings that they provided
you
• Change the current network settings such as the Internal IP address, the IP
address pool, DHCP settings, and more
• Set the Router’s firewall to work with specific applications (port forwarding)
IMPORTANT:
Run the Setup Assistant from the computer that is directly connected to the Router
from Step 1.B.
