Chapter 3:
Advanced Configuration
After setting up the Router with the Setup Wizard (located
on the CD-ROM), the Router will be ready for use. If you
would like to change its advanced settings, use the
Router's browser-based utility. This chapter describes each
web page of the utility and each page's key functions. You
can access the utility via a web browser on a computer
connected to the Router.
The browser-based utility has these main tabs: Setup,
Wireless, Security, Storage,
Applications & Gaming, Administration, and Status.
Additional tabs will be available after you click one of the
main tabs.
How to Access the Browser-Based Utility
To access the browser-based utility, launch the web
browser on your computer, and enter the Router's default
IP address, 192.168.1.1 or WRT610N in the Address field.
Then press Enter.
A login screen will appear. (Non-Windows XP users will
see a similar screen.) Leave the User name field blank.
Then enter the password you set up during the Setup
Wizard. (If you did not run the Setup Wizard, then use the
default password, admin. You can set a new password
on the Administration > Management screen. Refer to
Administration > Management, page 30.) Click OK to
continue.
