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:
(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”.

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.
