Alternate Setup Method

Logging out of the Router

One computer at a time can log in to the Router for the purposes of making changes to the settings of the Router. Once a user has logged in to make changes, there are two ways that the computer can be logged out. Clicking the “Logout” button will log the computer out. The second method is automatic. The login will time out after a specified period of time. The default login time out is 10 minutes. This can be changed from 1 to 99 minutes. For more information, see the section in this manual titled “Changing the Login Timeout Setting”.
