42 Setting up your wireless router
Changing system settings
The System Settings page is where you can enter a new administrator password, set the time
zone, enable remote management, and turn on and off the NAT function of the router.
Setting or changing the Administrator Password
The router ships with NO password entered. If you wish to add a password for greater
security, you can set a password here. Write down your password and keep it in a safe place,
as you will need it if you need to log into the router in the future. It is also recommended that
you set a password if you plan to use the remote management feature of your router.
Changing the Login Time-Out Setting
The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you can be logged into
the router's Web-Based Advanced User Interface. The timer starts when there has been no
activity. For example, you have made some changes in the Web-Based Advanced User
Interface, then left your computer alone without clicking "Logout". Assuming the time-out is
set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you leave, the login session will expire. You will have
to log into the router again to make any more changes. The login time-out option is for
security purposes and the default is set to 10 minutes.
Note: Only one computer can be logged into the router's Web-Based Advanced User Interface
at one time.
Setting the time and time zone
The router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This
allows the router to synchronize the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized
clock in the router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the
time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that observes daylight saving, then place
a check mark in the box next to Automatically Adjust Daylight Saving. The system clock
may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the router to contact the time
servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself.
