INITIAL CONFIGURATION

The ADSL Router offers a user-friendly web-based management interface for the configuration of all the unit’s features. Any PC directly attached to the unit can access the management interface using a web browser, such as Internet Explorer (version 6.0 or above).

ISP SETTINGS

If you are not sure of your connection method, please contact your Internet Service Provider. There are several connection types to choose from: Static IP, DHCP, PPPoE, PPPoA, PPTP and L2TP.

NOTE: 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.

NOTE: It is strongly recommended to change the default user name and password the first time you access the web interface. For information on changing user names and passwords, See “Channel Configuration” on page 59.
