HITRON BVW-3653 USER’S GUIDE
INTRODUCTION
The BVW-3653 has a built-in DHCP server that, when active, assigns IP addresses
to computers on the LAN. When the DHCP server is active, you can get an IP
address automatically. The DHCP server is active by default.
If your computer is configured to get an IP address automatically, or if you are not
sure, try to log in to the BVW-3653 (see
Logging into the BVW-3653
on page
22
).
±
If the login screen displays, your computer is already configured correctly.
±
If the login screen does not display, either the BVW-3653’s DHCP server is not
active or your computer is not configured correctly. Follow the procedure in
Manual IP Address Setup
on page
21
and set your computer to get an IP
address automatically. Try to log in again. If you cannot log in, follow the manual
IP address setup procedure again, and set a specific IP address as shown. Try
to log in again.
NOTE:
If you still cannot see the login screen, your BVW-3653’s IP settings may
have been changed from their defaults. If you do not know the BVW-3653’s
new address, you should return it to its factory defaults. See Resetting the
BVW-3653 on page 23. Bear in mind that ALL user-configured settings are
lost.
1.4.1
MANUAL IP ADDRESS SETUP
By default, your BVW-3653’s local IP address is
192.168.0.1
. If your BVW-3653 is
using the default IP address, you should set your computer’s IP address to be
between
192.168.0.2
and
192.168.0.255
.
NOTE:
If your BVW-3653 DHCP server is active, set your computer to get an IP
address automatically in step 5. The BVW-3653 assigns an IP address to
your computer. The DHCP server is active by default.
Take the following steps to manually set up your computer’s IP address to connect to
the BVW-3653:
NOTE:
This example uses Windows XP; the procedure for your operating system
may be different.

CABLE OVERVIEW
This section describes some of the concepts related to the
Cable
screens.
2.1.1
DOCSIS
The Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) is a
telecommunications standard that defines the provision of data services) Internet
access) over a traditional cable TV (CATV) network.
Your BVW-3653 supports DOCSIS version 3.0.
2.1.2
IP ADDRESSES AND SUBNETS
Every computer on the Internet must have a unique Internet Protocol (IP) address.
The IP address works much like a street address, in that it identifies a specific
location to which information is transmitted. No two computers on a network can have
the same IP address.
2.1.2.1
IP ADDRESS FORMAT
IP addresses consist of four octets (8-bit numerical values) and are usually
represented in decimal notation, for example
192.168.0.1
. In decimal notation, this
means that each octet has a minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 255.
An IP address carries two basic pieces of information: the “network number” (the
address of the network as a whole, analogous to a street name) and the “host ID”
(analogous to a house number) which identifies the specific computer (or other
network device).
2.1.2.2
IP ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT
IP addresses can come from three places:
