Connecting the ATA Router
The router can be configured with your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard
application in the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me,
etc. The product provides a very easy and user-friendly interface for configuration.
Computers must have an Ethernet interface installed properly and be connected to the router
either directly or through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed and configured to
obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same
subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.10.1 and the subnet mask
is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached computer must be in the same subnet, and have an IP
address in the range of 192.168.10.1 to 192.168.10.253). The best and easiest way is to
configure the computer to get an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP.
If you encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface it may be advisable to
uninstall any kind of software firewall on your computers, as they can cause problems
accessing the 192.168.10.1 IP address of the router. Users should make their own decisions on
how to best protect their network.
