Configuration Program

The TW100-BRF114U contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and con-

figure it, using your Web Browser.

Your Browser must support JavaScript

.

The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:

•

Netscape V4.08 or later

•

Internet Explorer V4 or later

Preparation

Before attempting to configure the TW100-BRF114U, please ensure that:

•

Your PC can establish a physical connection to the TW100-BRF114U. The PC and the

TW100-BRF114U must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the TW100-

BRF114U) or on the same LAN segment.

•

The TW100-BRF114U must be installed and powered ON.

•

If the TW100-BRF114U's default IP Address (192.168.0.1) is already used by another

device, the other device must be turned OFF until the TW100-BRF114U is allocated a

new IP Address during configuration.

Using UPnP

If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the TW100-BRF114U will appear in the

system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering to create a

new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.

•

Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the TW100-BRF114U, you can accept the

desktop shortcut.

•

Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devices in

My

Network Places

(previously called

Network Neighborhood

).

•

Double - click the icon for the TW100-BRF114U (either on the Desktop, or in

My Net-

work Places

) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section

Setup Wizard

for

details of the initial configuration process.

Using your Web Browser

To establish a connection from your PC to the TW100-BRF114U:

1.

After installing the TW100-BRF114U in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is already

running, restart it.

2.

Start your WEB browser.

3.

In the

Address

box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of the TW100-BRF114U, as in

this example, which uses the TW100-BRF114U 's default IP Address:

HTTP://192.168.0.1

If you can't connect

If the TW100-BRF114U does not respond, check the following:

•

The TW100-BRF114U is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is

powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:

•

Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.

•

Enter the command:

ping 192.168.0.1

If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your

PC's IP address is not compatible with the TW100-BRF114U 's IP Ad-

dress. (See next item.)

•

If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range

192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 to be compatible with the TW100-BRF114U's

default IP Address of 192.168.0.1. Also, the

Network Mask

must be set to

255.255.255.0. See

Chapter 4 - PC Configuration

for details on checking your

PC's TCP/IP settings.

•

Ensure that your PC and the TW100-BRF114U are on the same network

segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
