Chapter 3. Configuration
This chapter illustrates the web-based AWL700 configuration in detail. The AWL700 Wireless LAN Router has a structured menu and a “Quick Installation Wizard” page to help users set up their own AWL700 quickly. This chapter describes each of these menu sections. When the AWL700 boots up at the first time, it has a default IP address 192.168.1.1 assigned to its LAN interface. In order to configure AWL700, please point an Internet browser from the browsing host to http://192.168.1.1 and you will be presented with the log icon in screen as shown below. You must log in with the correct user name and password to start the AWL700 configuration in a MD5 authenticated web session. For setting up this MD5 authenticated session, the default user name is admin, and initially the password is also admin. We strongly recommend that – you should change the root password as described in the Admin Password section.
Once your log in is successful, you will be presented with a welcome web page. In that page, you can proceed with AWL700 configuration or link to BenQ’s web site for advanced information.
