When prompted for a username and password by the router, leave the username field empty, and enter “admin” in the
password field. Use lower case.
Hit “OK” and you should be taken to the router’s configuration screen. The default start
screen happens to be the main configuration screen, so no extra navigation is required. The very first options presented
are the IP configuration options.
They should be set to “static IP”, and then the appropriate IP addresses, taken from the
customer info sheet, entered into their corresponding fields. These will be:
Internet IP address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway
DNS 1
DNS 2
DNS 3 can be left blank.
Once all addresses have been input, hit the “save” button at the bottom of the screen.
After the router has been configured, you should have no problem accessing the dish control page at 192.168.1.2 using
your web browser.
Along the top of the dish control page are several options, first click “setup screen”. From the setup
screen, click “IP configuration”. On the IP configuration screen the only option we are concerned with (and indeed, the
only one you should ever
have to change) is the “Modem IP” field. Make sure it matches the modem’s IP address from
the customer info sheet (this will be the same address listed as the “default gateway” from the router settings). Again,
save these settings before leaving the page.
Once all settings have been set and saved, it’s a good idea to physically power cycle the entire system once to be sure
the new settings are in use. At this point you should be able to access all of your various systems pages, and your unit
should be ready to search for satellite.
If for any reason you find you’re still having connectivity issues after this, contact
the Technical Support department for further assistance.
