Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Cisco RV345/P router. This guide describes how to install and manage your
router. This chapter includes information to help you get started on your device. Your Cisco RV345/P comes
with default settings. However, your internet service provider (ISP) might require you to modify the settings.
You can modify the settings using a web browser such as Internet Explorer (version 10 and higher), Firefox,
or Chrome (for PC) or Safari (for Mac).

Getting Started
This page displays the most common configuration tasks on your device. To start the router, follow these
steps:
Step 1
Connect a PC to a numbered LAN port on the device. If the PC is configured to become a DHCP client, an IP address
in the 192.168.1.x range is assigned to the PC.
Step 2
Start a web browser.
Step 3
In the address bar, enter the default IP address of the device, 192.168.1.1. The browser might issue a warning that the
website is untrusted. Continue to the website.
Step 4
When the sign-in page appears, enter the default username cisco and the default password cisco (lowercase).
Step 5
Click Login.
During the system boot up, the power LED will progressively keep flashing until the system has fully booted.
Note
The system boot time will be less than 3 minutes typically. If the router is fully configured with all feature
configuration settings set to a maximum, it may take up to 7 minutes to fully boot the system.
