8 LINKSY S & D-LINK PORT FORWARDING

8.2 TYPICAL LINKSYS PORT FORWARDING

This section will cover a few simple configurations for the Linksys router. This chapter is only to offer some
help to the installer and end user. Please understand we DO NOT support this product and will not give
tech support on it. If you need additional technical support on this router you must call Linksys.
To access the Web-based Utility, launch a web browser and type the Router’s IP address, typically
192.168.1.1, in the address bar. Then press Enter. A password request page will appear. (Non-Windows
XP users will see a similar screen.) Leave the User Name field blank. The first time you access the router,
use the default password admin. Click the OK button to continue.
The first screen that appears displays the Setup tab. This allows you to change the Router's general
settings. Change these settings as described here and click the Save Settings button to apply your
changes or Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
Click on the “Applications & Gaming” tab.
