Configuration Program - LevelOne wbr-3408 User Manual

Configuration Program

The Wireless Router contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and
configure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must support JavaScript.
The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:

Netscape V4.08 or later

Internet Explorer V4 or later
Preparation
Before attempting to configure the Wireless Router, please ensure that:

Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Wireless Router. The PC and
the Wireless Router must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the Wire-
less Router) or on the same LAN segment.

The Wireless Router must be installed and powered ON.

If the Wireless Router's default IP Address (192.168.0.1) is already used by anoth-
er device, the other device must be turned OFF until the Wireless Router is
allocated a new IP Address during configuration.
Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the Wireless Router will appear in
the system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering
to create a new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.

Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the Wireless Router, you can
accept the desktop shortcut.

Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devic-
es in My Network Places (previously called Network Neighborhood).

Double - click the icon for the Wireless Router (either on the Desktop, or in My
Network Places) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section Setup Wi-
zard for details of the initial configuration process.
Using your Web Browser
To establish a connection from your PC to the Wireless Router:
1. After installing the Wireless Router in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is al-
ready running, restart it.
2. Start your WEB browser.
3. In the Address box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of the Wireless Router, as
in this example, which uses the Wireless Router's default IP Address:
http://192.168.0.1
Because the default password is blank, your will not be prompted for a password.
However, you should assign a password. See the Password section later in this chap-
ter for details.
