Chapter 5: Configuring the Wireless-G Range Expander
Overview

Wireless-G Range Expander

Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G Range Expander

Overview

The Range Expander has been designed to be functional right out of the box, setting it up with the Auto
configuration button or the Setup Wizard. However, if you'd like to change these settings, the Range Expander
can be configured through your web browser and Web-based Utility. This chapter describes the Web-based
Utility and its different features.

Accessing the Web-based Utility

Open your web browser and enter the IP address you entered in the Setup Wizard. (If you kept the Range
Expander’s default IP address or used the Auto configuration button, the default IP address is

192.168.1.240

.)

Press the

Enter

key and the login screen will appear. Leave the

User Name

field blank. The first time you open the

Web-based Utility, enter the default password

admin

. You can set a new password from the Password tab.

Note:

The Range Expander is designed to function

properly after using the Auto configuration button or
Setup Wizard. This chapter is provided solely for
those who wish to perform more advanced

configuration or monitoring.
