Chapter 2 Setting Up BBSM Hotspot
Running the Setup Wizard
Step 7 Click Next. The Restart Computer dialog box appears on top of the Setup Wizard. This dialog box gives
you the option to restart BBSM now or cancel. (See Figure 2-5.) You must restart or reboot for the
IP address settings to take place. If you do not restart, you cannot continue with the setup.
Caution Restarting the BBSM Hotspot server at this point will save all of the settings entered for your server up
to this point. Click No to close the dialog box, which returns you to the Calculating TCP/IP Addresses
window. If you click Cancel at any point after the restart, the server settings and IP addresses that you
have entered at this time will be retained, while settings entered after the restart will be cancelled. If you
run the Setup Wizard a second time and do not change the IP address settings (a reboot is unnecessary),
if you click Cancel, all settings entered at that time, including the server settings, will be cancelled.

Step 8
For the IP address configuration settings to take effect, click Yes. The BBSM Hotspot server configures
the new settings, then restarts. After you log in to BBSM Hotspot as Administrator, the Welcome Back
window appears. (See Figure 2-6.)
