Once you have established an Ethernet link to the router, there are three methods you can use to access the router.

HTTP Web-browser Access

Most HTML browsers can be used, though Internet Explorer 4.0 or Netscape 4.0 are recommended. IE 2.0 and Netscape 2.0 and their predecessors are not supported. The HTML interface can be used to access the LAN (or WAN) IP address or it can be used with FTP to upload and download files to and from the router.

To log on to the modem via HTML:

1Bring up your favorite web browser.

2Enter the Ethernet IP address of the router (10.0.0.1 or Speedstream) in the “Location” or “Address” area where you enter web page addresses.

3Refer to “HTML Web Interface” on page 20.

TELNET Access

From the local area network you can use TELNET to log in using the Ethernet IP address. Or, if the unit is configured as a router, it can be accessed from the WAN using the DSL/WAN IP address. Initially out of the box, the router has no WAN IP address so only the Ethernet address can be used for remote access on initial startup.

To log on to the modem via TELNET:

1If using Windows on a PC, select Start > Programs > Command Prompt. If on a UNIX system, bring up a shell window.
