CHAPTER 4 CONFIGURING THE BELGACOM B-

BOX

After you have configured TCP/IP on a client computer, use a web browser to configure the

Belgacom b-box. The Belgacom b-box can be configured by any Java-supported browser such as

Internet Explorer 4.0 or above. Using the web management interface, you may configure the

Belgacom b-box and view statistics to monitor network activity.

To access the Belgacom b-box’s management interface, enter the IP address of the Belgacom b-

box in your web browser:

http://192.168.1.1

(The Belgacom b-box automatically switches to Port 88 for management access.) Then click

LOGIN. (By default there is no password.)

Navigating the Web Browser Interface

The Belgacom b-box’s management interface consists of a Setup Wizard and an

Advanced Setup section.

Setup Wizard:

Use the Setup Wizard if you want to quickly set up the Belgacom b-box.

Go to “Setup Wizard”.

Advanced Setup:

Advanced Setup supports more advanced functions like hacker attack

detection, IP and MAC address filtering, virtual server setup, virtual DMZ host, as well as

other functions. Go to “Advanced Setup”.

Making Configuration Changes

Configurable parameters have a dialog box or a drop-down list. Once a configuration

change has been made on a page, be sure to click the “SAVE SETTINGS” or “NEXT”

button at the bottom of the page to enable the new setting.

clients in order to connect to the ADSL Wireless Base Station network.

Wireless ID (SSID)

The Wireless ID is preset to “WiFi_xx?”. The “xx” corresponds with an unique number in your ADSL

Wireless Base Station. You can either leave it as is, or change it. On client PCs’ software, this might also be

called the Network Name. The Wireless ID is used to identify this particular wireless network. Please refer to

the manual of your wireless client on how to connect to the ADSL Wireless Base Station.
