Advanced User Confi guration
The Wireless Cable Gateway offers local management capability through a built in HTTP server
and a number of diagnostic and confi guration web pages. These pages are available from
http://192.168.0.1 in RG and CH modes, and http://192.168.100.1 in CM Mode. Not all pages are
available in some modes.
Some information on two of the following web pages MUST BE confi gured, as explained in
Mandatory User Confi guration.
In addition, more confi guration and diagnostics are possible through the following additional
web pages, most of which are aimed at controlling the advanced networking functions of the
gateway.
To navigate between pages, use the hyperlinks on the top of the page, and the side bar on the
left side of the page. For easy navigation, the pages are organized in groups, with group names
at the top of the pages. Individual page names within each group are provided in the sidebar. To
navigate to a page, click the group hyperlink at the top, then the page hyperlink on the sidebar.
Your cable company may not support the reporting of some items of information listed on your
gateway’s internal web pages. In such cases, the information fi eld appears blank. This is normal.
In the CM Mode, the simplest confi guration mode of the gateway, or in the CH Mode, where you
have subscribed to an outside service (your cable company or another party) to remotely manage
your home network confi guration, you will see only the Status and Wireless web page hyperlinks
in the sidebar, indicating only these page groups are available.
In the RG Mode, the mode where you manage your home network confi guration, you will see
web page hyperlinks to all fi ve page groups: Status, Basic, Advanced, Firewall, and Wireless. The
following section explains all of the available pages for all of the modes.
Note: Your gateway complies with DOCSIS standards regarding software upgrades. DOCSIS requires that any
software upgrade to a device that is connected to a cable system, like your gateway, must be "pushed" to the
gateway by the cable operator. Also, the features of the gateway, and the embedded web pages that control
those features, can vary by software version. Therefore, you may fi nd that your gateway's web pages and
features vary slightly from those shown here. This is normal, and is the result of a software upgrade your cable
operator has made to your gateway.
