Web Configuration

The Wireless Gateway must be configured through its built-in Web-based configuration utility. Before attempting to access this utility, note the following factory defaults:

∙WAN interface defaults: IP address 192.168.100.254, address mask 255.255.255.0. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) client and PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) functions are off.

∙LAN interface defaults: IP address 192.168.0.254, address mask 255.255.255.0. DHCP server function is on and will assign addresses in the range of 192.168.0.101 through 192.168.0.150.

∙General defaults: No administrator password is set. Requests received through the WAN port (including “ping” requests and HTTP requests to the built-in Web-based configuration utility) are disabled.

The requirements for configuring the Wireless Gateway are (1) a computer equipped with an Ethernet interface and a recent, frames-capable, Javascript-enabled World Wide Web browser, and (2) an Ethernet cable.

You will also need extensive knowledge of the LAN and the broadband link that the Wireless Gateway will be connected to.

The recommended way to connect the Wireless Gateway for configuration is as follows:

1.Connect the computer to one of the LAN ports on the back panel of the Wireless Gateway's LAN ports with the Ethernet cable (NOT the uplink port). Do not make any other connections to the Wireless Gateway.

2.Set the computer to use an IP address in the range of 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.0.253 and an address mask of 255.255.255.0.
