2. WEB MANAGEMENT
This chapter describes how to manage the Residential Gateway through a Web browser.
The IP address concepts and gaining access to the Residential Gateway will be introduced
first, and then followed by web-based management instructions.
2.1 The Concept of IP address
IP addresses have the format n.n.n.n, for example 168.168.8.100.
IP addresses are made up of two parts:
The first part (168.168 in the example) refers as network address identifies the
network on which the device resides. Network addresses are assigned by three
allocation organizations. Depending on your location, each allocation organization
assigns a globally unique network number to each network that wishes to connect to
the Internet.
The second part (8.100 in the example) identifies the device within the network.
Assigning unique device numbers is your responsibility.
If you are unsure of the IP
addresses allocated to you, consult the allocation organization from which your IP
addresses were obtained.
Remember that no two devices on a network can have the same address.
If you connect to
the outside world, you must change all the arbitrary IP addresses to comply with those you
have been allocated by the allocation organization. If you do not do this, your outside
communications will not operate.
A subnet mask is a filtering system for IP addresses. It allows you to further subdivide your
network. You must use the proper subnet mask for proper operation of a network with
subnets defined.
2.2 Start Configuring
The Residential Gateway can be managed via a Web browser.
However, before doing so,
you must assign a unique IP address to the Residential Gateway. Use a RJ-45 LAN cable
and any of the four 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 ports of Residential Gateway as the temporary
RJ-45 Management console port to login to the Residential Gateway and set up the IP
address for the first time. (The default IP is
“192.168.0.1”
. You can change the Residential
Gateway
’
s IP to the needed one in the
WAN Settings
under
Network Configuration
menu.)
Follow these steps to manage the Residential Gateway through a Web browser:
Use one of the four 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 ports as the temporary RJ-45
Management console port to set up the assigned IP parameters of the Residential
Gateway.

3. Default gateway IP address, if required
Run a Web browser and specify the Residential Gateway
’
s IP address to reach it.
(The default IP of Residential Gateway is
“192.168.0.1”
before any changes.)
Login to the Residential Gateway to reach the Main Menu.
Once you gain the access, a Login window appears like the following:
Enter the authorized user name and password then click
“
Login
”
.
The default user name is
admin
and
without a password
(leave this field blank).
After a successful login, the following Residential Gateway Main Menu screen appears.
NOTE:
By default, the remote access to the Residential Gateway is disabled. If you would
like to login the Residential Gateway from WAN port or ports assigned in Bridge Mode, you
must enable
“
Remote Administration
”
option in
Administrator Account
under the
Management
Menu and then add IP address (if necessary) and specify Http port number
for remote login. Once completed, you can type in the specified IP address and Http port
number in URL field of your web browser like this
“
192.168.1.198:8888
”
to access to web
management.

Both 802.11n & 802.11b/g models have same software functions except that 802.11n
models provide users to use 802.11n wireless mode that can achieve higher speed rate. In
this user
’
s manual, we will use screenshots from 802.11n model consistently to explain
software functions. Differences in software functions between 802.11b/g and 802.11n
models will also be pointed out in this user
’
s manual.
2.3 Introduction to Sub-Menus
When you successfully login to the web management, you will be directed to the Main Menu.
On the right pane of the Main Menu, it shows system information including detailed
information about your device, fiber information, etc. On the left pane, there are several sub-
menus that enable you to configure the basic and advanced software functions. Below is the
brief description for each sub-menu. For detailed function explanations, please refer to the
individual section.
