Chapter 5: Configuring the Wireless-G Travel Router
with SpeedBooster
Overview
Linksys recommends using the Setup Wizard on the Setup CD-ROM for first-time installation of the Router. For
advanced users, you may follow the instructions in the previous chapter, “Chapter 4: Connecting the Wireless-G
Travel Router with SpeedBooster”, and then configure the Router through its Web-based Utility.
This chapter will describe each web page in the Utility and each page’s key functions. The utility can be accessed
via your web browser through use of a computer connected to the Router. For a basic network setup, most users
will use these two screens of the Utility:
Basic Setup. On the Basic Setup screen, enter the settings provided by your ISP.
Management. Click the Administration tab and then the Management tab. The Router’s default password is
admin. To secure the Router, change the Password from its default.
There are seven main tabs: Setup, Wireless, Security, Access Restrictions, Applications & Gaming, Administration,
and Status. Additional tabs will be available after you click one of the main tabs.
Make the necessary changes through the Web-based Utility. On each screen, click the Save Settings button to
apply your changes or Cancel Changes to cancel your changes. Help information is shown on the right-hand side
of the screen.
HAVE YOU: Enabled TCP/IP on your PCs? PCs

NOTE: For first-time installation of the Router,
Linksys recommends using the Setup Wizard on the
Setup CD-ROM.
