Programming the Router

Introduction

The broadband installer should have left a document describing specific information required to connect to the Internet Service Provider (ISP). This document may have included a User Name and Password and/or several IP addresses. An IP address is a number used to identify an address on the Internet. This information will be used to program the router.

The software in the jukebox provides access to the router setup screens so that a laptop or other computer is not required for setting up the router.

Description

Be sure the broadband equipment and the router are powered up and the proper status LEDs on all equipment are lit. Power up the jukebox and wait for the User Interface to appear. Open the jukebox and press the SERVICE button on the Communication Controller board to enter the Service Mode. Touch the Hardware Setup button then touch Router Setup. The screen should look like Figure 2-5. If you get a “Page Not Found” error screen, see Troubleshooting for suggestions.

To change a value in the router, first touch the text box on the router setup view that is to be changed. This sets the focus to that text box. Touch keys on the keyboard displayed at the bottom of the screen to enter new data.

NOTE:

For security purposes several of the router configuration pages have been disabled including the Setup Wizard and the HELP page. Full access to all router configuration pages is still available but a laptop computer or other computer device will have to be used. If the router is configured using a different computer and the Administrator pass- word is changed or the default IP address of the router is changed, you will no longer be able to use the jukebox software to access and pro- gram the router.
