Installation

You can configure the BiPAC 7300GX router through the convenient and user-friendly

interface of a web browser. Most popular operating systems such as Linux and Windows

98/NT/2000/XP/Me include a web browser as a standard application.

3.1 Before Configuration

PCs must have a properly installed Ethernet interface which connects to the router directly

or through an external repeater hub. In addition, PCs must have TCP/IP installed and

configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must

be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is

192.168.1.254

and the subnet mask is

255.255.255.0

(i.e. any attached PC must be in the same subnet,

and have an IP address in the range between 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.253). The easiest

way is to configure the PC is to obtain an IP address automatically from the router using

DHCP. If you encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface you are advised

to

uninstall

any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems when

trying to access the 192.168.1.254 IP address of the router.

Please follow the steps below for installation on your PC’s network environment. First of all,

check your PC’s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network

adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating

system manuals.

Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or

through the BiPAC 7300GX. To configure other types of

workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s documentation.
