User Interface
Using your Internet browser, you can access the Router’s Web-Based

screen, leave the password blank and click the “Submit” button to log in.
Logging out of the Router
One computer at a time can log into the Router for the purposes of
making changes to the settings of the Router. Once a user has logged in
to make changes, there are two ways that the computer can be logged
out. Clicking the “Logout” button will log the computer out. The second
method is automatic. The login will time out after a specified period of
time. The default login time-out is 10 minutes. This can be changed from
1 to 99 minutes. For more information, see the section in this manual
entitled “Changing the Login Time-Out Setting”.
