2.1 Overview

This chapter describes how to access the NBG-418N Web Configurator and provides an overview of
its screens.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy setup and
management of the NBG-418N via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later versions,
Mozilla Firefox 3 and later versions, or Safari 2.0 and later versions. The recommended screen
resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in
Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScript (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to
Chapter 20 Troubleshooting
Internet Explorer.

2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator

Make sure your NBG-418N hardware is properly connected and prepare your computer or computer
1
network to connect to the NBG-418N (refer to the Quick Start Guide).
Launch your web browser.
2
Type "http://192.168.1.1" as the website address in your web browser. This is the default LAN IP
3
address in router mode, the default device mode (192.168.1.2 is the default IP address in non-
router mode).
Your computer must be in the same subnet in order to access this website address. In router mode,
the NBG-418N can assign your computer an IP address, so you must set your computer to get an IP
address automatically (computer factory default) or give it a fixed IP address in the range between
192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.254 (see the appendices).
Type admin (default) as the user name and 1234 (default) as the password and click OK.
