•Router Password For greater security, you should set a password for the Router. If you don’t set the password, all users on your network will be able to access the Router using the default password admin. We recommend that you change your password often.

•UPnP Services Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows systems, such as Windows XP PCs to automatically configure the Router for various Internet applications, such as gaming and videoconferencing. Click the radio button next to Enable to enable UPnP Services, or Disable to disable UPnP Services.

•Restore Factory Defaults If you select the Restore Factory Default option and click the Apply button, you will clear all of the Router’s settings and restore the default settings.

Do not restore the factory defaults unless you are having difficulties with the Router and have exhausted all other troubleshooting measures. Once the Router is reset, you will have to re-enter all of your configuration data.

Note: The information provided on the Status tab may vary depending on the Router’s settings.

All of the information provided on the Status tab is read-only and can be changed using the Setup tab.
