3.1 Accessing the Web-Based Configuration Utility

For the initial configuration, we recommend you connecting your computer to the LAN port
with an Ethernet cable. If this cannot be done, you have to connect to the router wirelessly.
Before configuring your router through wireless network, make sure that SSID, Channel
and Security are set properly. The default setting of the WLAN Router that you will use:
SSID: default
Channel: 11
802.11 Mode: 802.11b/g/n mixed mode
Channel bandwidth: 20/40MHz
Security: Disable
Note:
Before you configure the router, make sure the host PC is set on the IP subnet that can be
accessed by your cable/DSL modem. For example, when the default network address of
the cable/DSL modem is 192.168.10.x, then the host PC should be set at 192.168.10.xxx
(where xxx is a number between 2 and 254), and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
