Advanced Configuration

After setting up the bridge by following the steps on the CD folder, the bridge
will be ready for use However, if you want to change its advanced settings,
use the bridge's browser-based utility This chapter describes each web page
of the utility and each page's key functions You can access the utility via a web
browser on a computer networked with the bridge
The browser-based utility has these main tabs: Setup, Wireless, Administration,
and Status Additional tabs will be available after you click one of the main tabs

How to access the browser-based utility

Use a web browser to access the browser-based utility
If the bridge is connected to a network with a DHCP server (usually the network
router), then the bridge will obtain its IP address from the DHCP server If
there is no DHCP server, then the bridge will use its default static IP address,
10.100.1.1 (If you set a permanent static IP address on the bridge through the
browser-based utility, then enter the static IP address instead )
NOTE
If you do not know the bridge's IP address, then find its IP
address in the DHCP clients table of your router (Refer to the
documentation for your router )
If you cannot locate the bridge's IP address, you can reset the
bridge; press the Reset button on the bridge for approximately five
seconds, using a straightened paper clip This will reset the bridge
back to the factory default settings The bridge will request an IP
address from the DHCP server (usually the network router) If no
DHCP server is found, then the bridge will use its default static IP
address, 10.100.1.1, until it detects a DHCP server and is assigned a
dynamic IP address
Launch your web browser, and enter the Adapter's IP address (the default
setting is 10.100.1.1)in the Address field Press Enter
A password request screen appears (Non-Windows XP users will see a similar
screen ) Leave the User name field blank Enter the password you created
during the Setup Wizard If you did not create a new password, use the default
password admin (You can set a new password from the Administration >
Management screen ) Click OK to continue
NOTE
If the password request screen does not appear, wait two minutes
and try again
Setup > Basic Setup
The first screen that appears is the Basic Setup screen Use this screen to change
the browser-based utility's language, or to change the bridge's wired, Ethernet
network settings
