DSL-504 ADSL Router User’s Guide

Web-based Router Configuration
Introduction
The DSL-504 offers an embedded Web-based (HTML) interface allowing users to manage the Router from anywhere on the network through a standard web browser, such as Netscape Navigator/Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. The Web browser acts as a universal access tool and can communicate directly with the Router using the HTTP protocol. Your web browser window may vary with the screen captures (pictures) in this guide. Verify that the PC using the web manager is NOT using a proxy server.
Note: This version of the web-based manager does not accept Chinese language input (or other languages requiring 2 bytes per character).
Getting Started
The web-based manager requires a java enabled web browser to manage the DSL-504. Web browsers such as the Netscape Communicator version 4 and above or the Internet Explorer versions 4.0 and above are operable.
Setting up the PC
Now that the physical connection is complete, you need to set the TCP/IP settings for your computer to properly connect to the DSL-500. Follow these simple steps.
Right-Click the “Network Neighborhood” (Win 98/98SE) or “My Network Places” (Win ME/2000) icon on your desktop and select “Properties.”
