Introducing the Web Configurator
802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W
This chapter describes how to access and navigate the web configurator.
2.1 Web Configurator Overview
The embedded web configurator allows you to manage the BIPAC-5100/5100W from
anywhere through a browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Use
Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 and later versions with JavaScript
enabled. It is recommended that you set your screen resolution to 1024 by 768 pixels
2.2 Accessing the BIPAC-5100/5100W Web Configurator
Step 1.
Make sure your BIPAC-5100/5100W hardware is properly connected (refer to the
Compact Guide or Read Me First).
Step 2.
Prepare your computer/computer network to connect to the BIPAC-5100/5100W (refer
to the Compact Guide or Read Me First).
Step 3.
Launch your web browser.
Step 4.
Type "192.168.1.254" as the URL.
Step 5.
An Enter Network Password window displays. Enter the user name (“admin” is the
default), password (“admin” is the default) and click OK.

Step 6.
You should now see the Site Map screen.
2.3 Navigating the BIPAC-5100/5100W Web Configurator
The following summarizes how to navigate the web configurator from the Site Map screen.
Screens vary slightly for different BIPAC-5100/5100W models.
¾
Click Wizard Setup to begin a series of screens to configure the BIPAC-5100/5100W for
the first time.
¾
Click a link under Advanced Setup to configure advanced BIPAC-5100/5100W features.
¾
Click a link under Maintenance to see BIPAC-5100/5100W performance statistics,
upload firmware and back up, restore or upload a configuration file.
¾
Click SITE MAP to go to the Site Map screen.
¾
Click Logout in the navigation panel when you have finished a BIPAC-5100/5100W
management session.

2.4 Configuring Password
It is highly recommended that you change the password for accessing the
BIPAC-5100/5100W.
To change the BIPAC-5100/5100W’s password, click Advanced Setup and then Password.
The screen appears as shown.
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Old Password
Type the default password or the existing password you use to access the
system in this field.
New Password
Type the new password in this field.
Retype to Confirm
Type the new password again in this field.
Apply
Click
Apply
to save your changes back to the BIPAC-5100/5100W.
Cancel
Click
Cancel
to begin configuring this screen afresh.
2.5 Resetting the BIPAC-5100/5100W
If you forget your password or cannot access the BIPAC-5100/5100W, you will need to reload
the factory-default configuration file or use the RESET button the back of the
BIPAC-5100/5100W. Uploading this configuration file replaces the current configuration file
with the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that
you had previously and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps
with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and flow control set to none. The password will be reset
to “admin”, also.

2.5.1 Using The Reset Button
Step 1.
Make sure the SYS LED is on (not blinking).
Step 2.
Press the RESET button for five seconds, and then release it. When the SYS LED
begins to blink, the defaults have been restored and the BIPAC-5100/5100W restarts.
2.5.2 Uploading a Configuration File Via Console Port
Download the default configuration file from the Billion FTP site, unzip it and save it in a folder.
Step 1.
Turn off the BIPAC-5100/5100W, begin a terminal emulation software session and
turn on the BIPAC-5100/5100W again. When you see the message "Press Any key to
enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds", press any key to enter debug mode.
Step 2.
Enter "atlc" after "Enter Debug Mode" message.
Step 3.
Wait for "Starting XMODEM upload" message before activating Xmodem upload on
your terminal. This is an example Xmodem configuration upload using HyperTerminal.
Step 4.
Click Transfer, then Send File to display the following screen.
Step 5.
After successful firmware upload, enter "atgo" to restart the router.

Chapter 3
Wizard Setup
802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W
This chapter provides information on the Wizard Setup screens in the web configurator.
3.1 Wizard Setup Introduction
Use the Wizard Setup screens to configure your system for Internet access settings and fill in
the fields with the information in the Internet Account Information table of the Compact Guide
or Read Me First. Your ISP may have already configured some of the fields in the wizard
screens for you.
3.2 Encapsulation
Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The BIPAC-5100/5100W
supports the following methods.
3.2.1 ENET ENCAP
The MAC Encapsulated Routing Link Protocol (ENET ENCAP) is only implemented with the IP
network protocol. IP packets are routed between the Ethernet interface and the WAN interface
and then formatted so that they can be understood in a bridged environment. For instance, it
encapsulates routed Ethernet frames into bridged ATM cells. ENET ENCAP requires that you
specify a gateway IP address in the Ethernet Encapsulation Gateway field in the second
wizard screen. You can get this information from your ISP.
3.2.2 PPP over Ethernet
PPPoE provides access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services
using PPP. The BIPAC-5100/5100W bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet,
RFC 2516) from your computer to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) which connects to
ADSL Access Concentrator where the PPP session terminates. One PVC can support any
number of PPP sessions from your LAN. For more information on PPPoE, see the appendix.
3.2.3 PPPoA
PPPoA stands for Point to Point Protocol over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5). It provides
