Opening the Base Station Management Tool
You can open the Base Station Management Tool from the
Microsoft Broadband Network Utility or open it directly from a Web
browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later, or Netscape
Navigator 4.7 or later. To use the Base Station Management Tool,
you must have a Java-enabled browser installed on your computer.
To open the Base Station Management Tool
1. In the Broadband Network Utility, on the Tools menu, click Base
Station Management Tool.
-or-
Open your Web browser, and then type the IP address of the
base station in the address field. By default, this address is
http://192.168.2.1. However, you can change this address in
the Base Station Management Tool.
2. To log on, type the base station password that you created when
you ran the Setup Wizard. The base station password is case
sensitive. If you did not run the Setup Wizard, use the default
base station password of admin.
If you do not remember the base station password that you set
when you ran the Setup Wizard, you will need to restore the factory
default settings on the base station and use the default base
station password of admin. When you restore the original settings,
you lose your ISP settings and must reconfigure these settings
from the Wide Area Network page in the Base Station
Management Tool.
For information about restoring factory default settings by using
the Reset button on the base station, see "Resetting the Base
Station" in Chapter 1.
Logging Off
It is important to log off the Base Station Management Tool after
you have finished using it. Logging off protects the configuration of
your base station so that unauthorized users cannot access and
change your settings. Logging off also ensures that you can open
the Base Station Management Tool from another computer if you
need to. The Base Station Management Tool cannot be opened
simultaneously on two different networked computers.
To log off the Base Station Management Tool, on any page of the
Base Station Management Tool, click Log Off.
Navigating the Base Station Management Tool
After you log on, the Home page of the Base Station Management
Tool opens. You can use the menu in the left pane to navigate to
the other pages of the Base Station Management Tool.
