Software configuration
TCP/IP protocol must be installed on all PCs which are to use the internet. By default, the IP address
192.168.1.1 and an activated DHCP server are configured for the router. That means that the connected PCs
are automatically given appropriate addresses and other settings. We recommend using these. Select
TCP/IP setting “Get IP address automatically” for all PCs connected to the router. You can then configure
the router using the web browser. The browser must be Java-capable and the Java function must be
activated (e.g. Internet Explorer 5.0 or better, or Netscape Navigator from version 4.71).
To start the configuration process, open your browser and enter “http://192.168.1.1” as the address.
The router selection menu is displayed (see below).
By default, the user name is set to admin and the password is admin. After entering these, click OK to log
on to the router. Start router configuration. (See screenshot below).
Click to continue.
You can change the default password in the next menu. We strongly recommend that you change the
password to prevent unauthorised users accessing the router configuration.
Click to continue.
Select a time zone. For Germany and surrounding countries, this is (GMT +01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern,
Rome, Stockholm, Vienna.
Click to continue.
The settings for the DHCP server are now made. We recommend that you do not change these values unless
you know what you are doing! Ensure that “Enable” is selected in the DHCP Server menu item.
Click to continue.
You must select the ADSL protocol in the next menu. In Germany this is generally PPPoE. The subsequent
instructions assume that the more common PPPoE protocol is used. Please contact your internet provider for
other protocols and settings.
