Chapter 5: Configuring the Wireless-G Broadband Router
Overview
You should always use the Setup CD-ROM when first installing the Router. If you do not wish to run the Setup
Wizard on the Setup CD-ROM, you can use the Web-based Utility to configure the Router. For advanced users, you
may configure the Router’s advanced settings through the Web-based Utility.
This chapter will describe each web page in the Utility and each page’s key functions. The utility can be accessed
via your web browser through use of a computer connected to the Router. For a basic network setup, most users
will use these two screens of the Utility:
•
Basic Setup. On the
Basic Setup
screen, enter the settings provided by your ISP.
•
Management. Click the
Administration
tab and then the
Management
tab. The Router’s default password is
admin
. To secure the Router, change the Password from its default.
There are seven main tabs: Setup, Wireless, Security, Access Restrictions, Applications & Gaming, Administration,
and Status. Additional tabs will be available after you click one of the main tabs.
To access the Web-based Utility, launch Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, and enter the Router’s default IP
address,
192.168.1.1
, in the
Address
field. Then, press
Enter
.
A password request page will appear. (Non-Windows XP users will see a similar screen.) Leave the
User Name
field blank. The first time you open the Web-based Utility, use the default password
admin
. (You can set a new
password from the Administration tab’s
Management
screen.) Click the
OK
button to continue.
HAVE YOU:
Enabled TCP/IP on your PCs? PCs
communicate over the network with this protocol.
Refer to “Appendix D: Windows Help” for more
information on TCP/IP.
NOTE:
When first installing the Router, you should
use the Setup Wizard on the Setup CD-ROM. If you
want to configure advanced settings, use this
