Web-based Configuration

Before You Begin the Configuration

It’s best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) that is connected to a switch for configuring the DWL-810+. (Note: You also have the option of connecting the DWL- 810+ directly to the computer that will be used for configuration). The default IP address for the DWL-810+ is 192.168.0.30 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You will need to assign your computer a Static IP address within the same range as the DWL-810+’s IP address for the purpose of configuring the DWL-810+. See the Manual on the CD-ROM if you need assistance in assigning a Static IP address for your network adapter.

Open your Web browser and type “http://192.168.0.30” into the URL address box. Then press the Enter or Return key.
