Billion 800VGT Router
Chapter 3:
Basic Installation
The
router
can
be
configured
with
your
web
browser.
A
web
browser
is
included
as
a
standard
application
in
the
following
operating
systems:
Linux,
Mac
OS,
Windows
98/NT/2000/XP/Me,
etc.
The
product
provides
an
easy
and
user-friendly
interface
for
configuration.
Please
check
your
Computer’s
network
components.
The
TCP/IP
protocol
stack
and
Ethernet
network
adapter
must
be
installed.
If
not,
please
refer
to
your
operating
system
manuals.
You
can
connect
your
computer
to
the
router
either
through
an
external
hub/switch
or
directly.
However,
please
ensure
that
your
computer
has
a
properly
installed
Ethernet
interface
prior
to
connecting
it
to
the
router.
You
ought
to
configure
your
Computers
to
obtain
an
IP
address
through
a
DHCP
server
or
you
can
set
them
up
with
a
fixed
IP
address
that
must
be
in
the
same
subnet
as
the
router.
The
default
IP
address
of
the
router
is
10.0.0.2
and
the
subnet
mask
is
255.255.255.0
(i.e.
any
attached
Computer
must
be
in
the
same
subnet,
and
have
an
IP
address
in
the
range
of
10.0.0.1
to10.0.0.254).
The
best
and
easiest
way
is
to
configure
the
PC
to
get
an
IP
address
automatically
from
the
router
using
DHCP.
If
you
encounter
any
problem
accessing
the
router’s
web
interface
it
may
also
be
advisable
to
temporarily
remove
any
kind
of
software
firewall
on
your
Computer’s
as
they
can
cause
problems
accessing
the
10.0.0.2
IP
address
of
the
router.
Users
should
always
make
their
own
decisions
on
how
to
best
protect
their
network.
Please
follow
the
steps
below
for
your
PC’s
network
environment
installation.
Any
TCP/IP
capable
workstation
can
be
used
to
communicate
with
or
through
the
router.
To
configure
other
types
of
workstations,
please
consult
the
manufacturer’s
documentation.
