Chapter 8:The Cable/DSL
Router’s Web-based Utility
Quick & Easy Router Administration
The EtherFast Cable/DSL Router uses a web-based interface to administer the
Router. The interface can be accessed via Microsoft Internet Explorer or
Netscape through use of a computer connected with a network cable to the
Router.
To access the web-based interface of the Router, launch Internet Explorer or
Netscape, and enter the Router’s default IP address, 192.168.1.1, in the
Address field. Then press Enter.
After entering the address value into the web browser, a password request page
will pop up. Leave the User Name field blank and type admin into the
Password field. Then click the OK button.
In this section, you’ll find brief descriptions of each web page in the Utility and
each page’s key functions. More detailed explanations and instructions can be
found at Linksys’s website, www.linksys.com.
To apply any of the settings you change on a page, click the Apply button, and
then click the Continue button. To cancel any values you’ve entered on any
page, click the Cancel button.
