If using the PPPoE option, you will need to remove or disable any
PPPoE client software on your computers.
CONNECTING TO THE LOGIN PAGE
It is recommended to make initial configuration changes by connecting a
PC directly to the ADSL Router’s LAN port. The ADSL Router has a default
IP address of 192.168.2.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You must
set your PC IP address to be on the same subnet as the ADSL Router (that
is, the PC and ADSL Router addresses must both start 192.168.2.x).
To access the ADSL Router’s management interface, follow these steps:
1. Use your web browser to connect to the management interface using
the default IP address of 192.168.2.1.
2. Log into the interface by entering the default username “admin” and
password “smcadmin,” then click Login.
