Access the Web-based Manager
The Manager PC can now use a web browser to communicate with the Router. Be
sure that the Manager PC is not configured to use a proxy server for Internet
access.
Note:
Be sure that the Manager PC is not configured to use a proxy server in the Internet
settings. In Windows Internet Explorer, you can check if a proxy server is enabled using the
following procedure:
1.
In Windows, click on the
START
button, go to
Settings
and choose
Control Panel
.
2.
In the Control Panel window, double-click on the
Internet Options
icon.
3.
Click the
Connections
tab and click on the
LAN Settings
button.
4.
Verify that the “Use proxy server” option is NOT checked. If it is checked, click in the
checked box to deselect the option and click
OK
.
To use the web-based management software, launch a suitable web browser and
direct it to the IP address of the Router. Type in
http://
followed by the default IP
address,
192.168.0.1
in the address bar of the browser. The URL in the address
bar should read:
http://192.168.0.1
.
In the page that opens, click on the
Login to web-based management module
button:
A new window will appear and you will be prompted for a user name and
password to access the web-based manager. Use the default user name
admin
and password
admin
for first time set up. You should change the web-based
manager access user name and password once you have verified that a
connection can be established. The user name and password allows any PC
within the same subnet as the Router to access the web-based manger.
