Open a Web Browser
Note: Be sure that the RouteFinder is cabled and that the power is connected. See the cabling drawings at
the beginning of this chapter.
Bring up a Web browser on the workstation.
• Type the default Gateway address: https://192.168.2.1
• Press Enter
IMPORTANT: Be sure to type https (http will not work).
Note: Make sure your PC’s IP address is in the same network as the router’s IP address.
IPCONFIG is a tool for finding a computer’s default gateway and MAC address.
In some environments, one or more Security Alert screen(s) may display. At the following Security Alert
screen, click Yes and follow any additional on-screen prompts.
Login
The Login screen displays after you type the default Gateway address:
• Type the default User name: admin (all lower-case)
• Tab to the Password field and type the default password: admin (all lower-case).
• Click the Login button.
Note: User name and Password entries are case-sensitive (both must be typed in lower-case). A
password can be up to 12 characters. If Windows displays the AutoComplete screen, you may
want to click No to tell Windows OS to not remember the password for security reasons.
Password Caution: Use a safe password! Your first name spelled backwards is not a sufficiently
safe password; a password such as xfT35$4 is better. It is recommended that you change the
default password. Create your own password.
• If someone else is already logged into the RouteFinder or you were logged in recently, the following
message displays.
Click Yes. (If you click No, you are returned to the Login screen.)
