	Password			Status

It is strongly recommended that you set a password for the Router. When you first power up the Router, there is no default Password setting assigned.

If you leave the password field blank, all users on your network will be able to access the Router simply by entering the unit’s IP address into their web brows- er’s location window.

If you select the Restore Factory Default option and click the Apply button, you will clear all of the Router’s settings.

Do not restore the factory defaults unless you are having difficulties with the Router and have exhausted all other troubleshooting measures. Once the Router is reset, you will have to re-enter all of your configuration data.

Status

This tab displays the current status of the Router; it reflects the data and selec- tions you’ve entered under the Setup tab.

All of the information provided on this screen is read-only. To make changes, select the Setup tab.

•Host Name This field shows the name of your Router. This entry is neces- sary for some ISPs.
