Setting Up the XRouter Through a Web Browser
Now that you have finished configuring the TCP/IP addresses of
the client and managing computers, you can begin configuring the
XRouter’s Internet settings. This can be done through a standard Web
browser (such as Netscape Navigator, Netscape Communicator, or
Microsoft Internet Explorer).
(IMPORTANT: Before following the instructions below you must
find out if your ISP is providing dynamic or static IP addressing. If your
service is dynamic, you do not need to follow the instructions below
because the XRouter automatically configures the TCP/IP information
provided by your ISP and you should already have Internet access. If
this is the case, you are done installing the XRouter and can begin
accessing the Internet from any of the client computers. However, if
your ISP has provided a static IP address or if you would like to make
further changes to the advanced features, you will need to enter the
Web-based configuration.)
Enter the Web-based configuration:
1.
Launch your computer’s Web browser.
(NOTE: Netscape Communicator 4.0, Internet Explorer 4.0 or
above are necessary for configuring the XRouter. Other clients
are not subject to this restriction.)
2. Type the XRouter's default IP address (192.168.1.1) in the
URL field. This is the area where you would normally enter a
Web site address such as “www.macsensetech.com”.
3.
Press Enter. The Username and Password window appears.
4.
Leave the User name field blank and type “admin“ as the
default password for the XRouter. You can change the pass-
word through a Web management page later. Click OK to
enter the Web management page.
