Chapter 1: Introduction
The Pocket VoIP Gateway offers a user-friendly web-based management interface
for the configuration of all the unit's features. Any PC directly attached to the unit can
access the management interface using a web browser, such as Internet Explorer
(version 6.0 or above), Firefox (version 1.5 or above), or Opera (version 8.51 or
above).
The initial configuration steps can be made through the web browser interface using
the Setup Wizard. It is recommended to make the initial changes by connecting a
PC directly to the Pocket VoIP Gateway's LAN port.
Operating Modes
The Pocket VoIP Gateway operates in one of three possible modes:
• Gateway
• Wireless Client
• Access Point
The Pocket VoIP Gateway's Setup Wizard and Advanced Configuration menus
display only settings that are valid for the current operating mode. Before making
any configuration settings, be sure the unit is operating in the mode you want to use.
In its default Automatic Configuration setting, the unit starts in Gateway mode if the
WAN port has a valid connection. If the WAN port has no connection, it starts in
Wireless Client mode.
To set the unit in Access Point mode requires manual configuration. After logging in,
you must first use the Advanced Setup menu to set the mode. See "Manually Setting
the Operating Mode" on page 1-3.
Accessing the Web Management Interface
The Pocket VoIP Gateway has a default IP address of 192.168.7.1 and a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0. If your PC uses DHCP or has an IP address on the same
subnet (that is, the PC and Pocket VoIP Gateway addresses both start 192.168.7.x),
you can connect immediately to the web interface. Otherwise, you must first change
your PC's IP address to be on the same subnet as the Pocket VoIP Gateway.
