1.6 Control Panel Overview
The Clear Access Control Panel is a browser-based application that helps
you manage, protect and share your home network. It enables you to
easily modify basic home network configuration such as wireless and port
forwarding, and provides a way to setup enhanced services such as time
blocking and content filtering. The Control Panel provides remote access to
the home network, providing a one-click process to access any IP-enabled
device in the home.
To access the Control Panel, open your favourite web browser and go to
https://northwestel.clearaccess.com/acs-portal/control-panel/login/. You
will be prompted to enter the username and password you selected when
you ordered the wireless gateway service. The User Guide and a Quick Start
Guide for the gateway Control Panel is found on the USB stick that you
received when the service was installed. Both guides can also be found on
www.nwtel.ca, in the Internet Usage Tools section.
