Connecting to Web-based Interface

When you have configured your computer, you can access the web-based interface and configure
needed parameters (create a WAN connection, change the parameters of the wireless network,
specify the settings of the firewall, etc.).
For security reasons, DIR-825/AC with default settings cannot connect to the Internet. To
!
get started, please set your own password used to access the web-based interface and, if
needed, configure other settings recommended by your ISP.
Start a web browser (see the Before You Begin section, page 19). In the address bar of the web
browser, enter the IP address of the router (by default, the following IP address is specified:
192.168.0.1). Press the Enter key.

If the error " The page cannot be displayed " (or " Unable to display the page "/" Could not
!
connect to remote server ") occurs upon connecting to the web-based interface of the router,
make sure that you have properly connected the router to your computer.
After the first access to the web-based interface you need to change the default administrator
password. Enter the new password in the Password and Confirmation fields. You may set any
password except admin. Use digits, Latin letters (uppercase and/or lowercase), and characters
available on the keyboard. Also you need to change the default name of the wireless network. To do
this, in the Network name (SSID) and 5GHz Network name (SSID) fields, enter a new name
for the router's wireless network in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band correspondingly or leave the values
suggested by the router: DIR-825-XXXX and DIR-825-5G-XXXX where XXXX are the last 4
characters of the device's MAC address. Then click the Apply button.
