Configuring your MBR800:
The MBR800 is ready to function right out of the box.
However, if your network uses custom settings or requires
special configuration, you may configure your router now.
To login to the router, open a web browser window on a
connected computer. Type “192.168.0.1” in the URL address line.
You are prompted for an Administrative password.
By default, the Administrative password is the last 6 digits of the
MBR800’s MAC address. The MAC address may be found on the
product label on the bottom of the MBR800 or on the box label.
Enter the password and then click the
Log In
button.

After you are logged in, the MBR800 STATUS tab displays,
showing the Device Info. We recommend you modify two
settings for best results.
Because the Admin Password default method is widely known,
we recommend changing your password. To modify it, click the
TOOLS tab then select
Admin
from the left menu bar. The
dialogs guide you through the process.
The router time should also be adjusted. To change the time,
from the same TOOLS tab, select
Time
from the left menu bar.
You are guided to modify the Time settings as needed.
