2.4 Device Administration Settings

This feature allows the administrator to manage the router by setting certain parameters. For security reasons, it is strongly rec- ommended that you set the Password so that only authorized persons are able to manage this router. If the Password is left blank, all users on your network can access this router simply by entering the unit’s IP Address into their web browser’s location window.

•Firmware Version

This is a read only field which shows the installed version of the firmware.

•Changing the password

The password of the BAR-WL Wireless Router can be changed from the default (blank), or from a previously set password, by typing the present password into the ‘Original Password’ field, and the new password into the ‘Password Change’ and ‘Password Confirm’ fields. Be sure that the password is less than 64 characters long and without any spaces.

Note! BAR-WL Router Username is always left blank.

•External Admin

Setting this to ‘Enable’ will allow users on the WAN port to manage the router. Default for this is Disabled.

•MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)

MTU sets the maximum incoming and outgoing packet size. Enter the maximum packet size you wish to set. Default is 1500 bytes. (Recommendation for PPPoE is to set this to 1492 bytes).

•NAT Idle Time

This is the amount of time the router will wait for a response before an entry is deleted from the NAT table. Default is 10mins, and users are recommended to leave the default value.

•Factory Defaults

Select “Activate” if you want to return all the router’s current settings to their factory default settings.

•Upgrade Firmware

Select “Activate” if you want to upgrade the firmware on the router. The router will ask you to browse to the new firmware file, which can then be uploaded.

Click “Apply” after making any changes.
