Introduction

The BreezeMAX PRO 6000’s Setup menu allows you to implement general management functions for

the unit, including setting connection modes, the system time zone, configuring the device name and

access password, and restore settings to factory defaults.

When you make a configuration change in the Setup pages, the following message is displayed after

clicking Apply: “Configuration setting”. After the configuration is applied, a “Prepare for Reboot”

message is displayed. The system performs a reboot and counts 60 seconds.

When applying Factory Defaults, a "Restore to factory default settings" message appears and then a

Rebooting message and 60 seconds countdown are displayed.

INFORMATION

You can use the web browser interface to access the WAN IP address only if the unit already has an IP

address that is reachable through your network.

The default LAN IP address of the BreezeMAX PRO 6000 is 192.168.254.251. The unit operates by

default in DHCP mode.
