Overview

This appendix explains how to upgrade the firmware of the Router.

How to Access the Web-Based Utility

1.For local access of the Router’s web-based utility, launch your web browser, and enter the Router’s default IP address, 192.168.1.1, in the Address field. Press the Enter key.

Address Bar

NOTE: If the Remote Management feature on the Firewall > General screen has been enabled, then users with administrative privileges can remotely access the web-based utility. Use http://<WAN IP address of the Router>, or use https://<WAN IP address of the Router> if you have enabled the HTTPS feature.

2.A login screen prompts you for your User name and Password. Enter admin in the User name field, and enter admin in the Password field. (You can change the Password on the Setup > Password screen.) Then click OK.
