Advanced Configuration

After setting up the Router with the Setup Wizard (located
on the CD-ROM), the Router will be ready for use. If you'd
like to change its advanced settings, use the Router's web-
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 web-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
web-based utility.

How to Access the Web-Based Utility

To access the web-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 password request screen will appear. (Non-Windows
XP users will see a similar screen.) Leave the User name
field blank. Then enter the password you set up during
the Setup Wizard. (If you did not run the Setup Wizard,
then use the default password, admin. You can set a new
password from the Administration tab's Management
screen.) Click OK to continue.

Internet Setup

The Internet Setup section configures the Router to your
Internet connection. Most of this information can be
obtained through your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Internet Connection Type
Select the type of Internet connection your ISP provides
from the drop-down menu. The available types are:
Automatic Configuration - DHCP
•
Static IP
•
PPPoE
•
PPTP
•
L2TP
•
Telstra Cable
•
Automatic Configuration - DHCP
The default Internet Connection Type is Automatic
Configuration - DHCP. Keep the default only if your ISP
supports DHCP or if you connect using a dynamic IP address.
(This option usually applies to cable connections.)
