SpaceLink Home Gateway
8. SpaceLink Home Gateway Home Page
A window will ask for the User name and Password in order to log in. The
factory default values are “admin” and “admin”. After logging in, you
will see the SpaceLink Home Gateway home page.
IMPORTANT: After entering information on any page, you must click
the “Save” button. If you click on any other link, you will go to the
other page and loose your new settings.
9. Agent to ISP or Another Network
Select Basic Setup WAN Configuration. Depending on the service that
you apply for, the ISP may provide you an IP address in which case select
Static IP in the IP Addressing Method and fill in the blanks. If you are
provided accounting information for PPPoE, select PPPoE and fill in the
blanks. If your IP address is automatic and account information is not
needed, select Automatic IP. Click Save and Finish when done.
10. Basic Firewall Setup
Select Basic Setup Firewall. Select the security level of the firewall
function. The “Low” level should be good enough for most home users.
The “Medium” and “High” level can provide more protection for your local
network but they may also stop you from executing some Internet
applications. These problems can be resolved through some complex
configuration options in the “Advanced Firewall” function.
Click Finish and wait for the SpaceLink Home Gateway to reboot and the
new settings will take effect.
Connect to the SpaceLink Home Gateway and select Status in the “Main
Menu” to check the new settings.
