This chapter describes how to access the NBG-318S web configurator and provides an
overview of its screens.

2.1 Web Configurator Overview

The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy setup and
management of the NBG-318S via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or
Netscape Navigator 7.0 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.
• JavaScripts (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter to see how to make sure these functions are allowed in
Internet Explorer.

2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator

1 Make sure your NBG-318S hardware is properly connected and prepare your computer
or computer network to connect to the NBG-318S (refer to the Quick Start Guide).
2 Launch your web browser.
3 Type "http://192.168.1.1" as the URL.
4 Type "1234" (default) as the password and click Login. In some versions, the default
password appears automatically - if this is the case, click Login.
5 You should see a screen asking you to change your password (highly recommended) as
shown next. Type a new password (and retype it to confirm) and click Apply or click
Ignore.
