Configuration Program
The Broadband Router contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it,
and configure it, using your Web Browser.
Your Browser must support JavaScript
.
The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:
•
Netscape V4.08 or later
•
Internet Explorer V4 or later
Preparation
Before attempting to configure the Broadband Router, please ensure that:
•
Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Broadband Router. The PC
and the Broadband Router must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the
Broadband Router) or on the same LAN segment.
•
The Broadband Router must be installed and powered ON.
•
If the Broadband Router's default IP Address (192.168.0.1) is already used by
another device, the other device must be turned OFF until the Broadband Router
is allocated a new IP Address during configuration.
Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the Broadband Router will appear
in the system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offer-
ing to create a new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.
•
Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the Broadband Router, you can
accept the desktop shortcut.
•
Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP de-
vices in
My Network Places
(previously called
Network Neighborhood
).
•
Double - click the icon for the Broadband Router (either on the Desktop, or in
My
Network Places
) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section
Setup
Wizard
for details of the initial configuration process.
