Chapter 3: Advanced Configuration
After setting up the Valet with the Setup Wizard (located 
on  the  Setup  Key),  the  Valet  is ready  for  use.  For  more 
technically knowledgeable users,  the Valet does  include 
Advanced Configuration settings. If you’d like to change 
some of  the  Valet’s advanced settings,  you  can modify 
settings using the browser-based utility. 
WARNING:  Modifying  some  settings  in  the 
browser-based  utility  may  disable  settings 
you’ve already applied using the Easy Setup Key.
This chapter describes  each  web page  of  the  utility  and 
the key functions on each page. You can access the utility 
via a web browser on a computer connected to the Valet.
The browser-based utility has the following main tabs: 
 • Setup
 • Wireless
 • Security
 • Access Restrictions
 • Applications & Gaming
 • Administration
 • Status
Additional  tabs  become  available  after  you  click  one  of 
the main tabs.
How to Access the Browser-Based Utility
To  access  the  browser-based  utility,  launch  the  web 
browser  on  your  computer,  and  enter  the  IP  address  of

Valet is:

Then, press Enter.
NOTE: You  can  also  access the  browser-based 
utility on Windows computers by entering the
