Chapter 3:
Advanced Configuration
After setting up the Router with the Setup Wizard (located
on the CD-ROM), the Router will be ready for use. However,
if you want to change its advanced settings, use the
Router's browser-based utility. This chapter describes each
web page of the utility and each page's key functions. You
can access the utility via a web browser on a computer
connected to the Router.
The browser-based utility has these main tabs: Setup,
Wireless, Security, Access Restrictions, Applications &
Gaming, Administration, and Status. Additional tabs will
be available after you click one of the main tabs.
NOTE:
When first installing the Router, you
should use the Setup Wizard on the Setup
CD-ROM. If you want to configure advanced
settings, use this chapter to learn about the
browser-based utility.
Access the Browser-Based Utility
To access the browser-based utility, launch the web
browser on your computer, and enter the Router's default
IP address, 192.168.1.1, in the Address field. Then press
Enter.
A login screen will appear. (Non-Windows XP users will
see a similar screen.) Leave the User name field blank.
The first time you open the browser-based utility, use the
default password admin. (You can set a new password
from the Administration > Management screen.) Click OK
to continue.
