Using the Configuration Manager's Setup

the Configuration Manager's
Setup Wizard
program to change the router's default
settings.

•
Instructions for launching the
Setup Wizard
program
•
A description of the available configuration menus and settings
Changing Default Settings
Here are some reasons why you might want to use the Configuration Manager:

on page 12 for details.

You want to specify or change the time zone. See
Step 2. Setup Time Zone
on page 12 for details.
•
You want to change your WAN setting. See
Step 3. WAN Type Setup
on
page 13 for details.
•
You want to enable wireless security. See
Step 4. Wireless Settings
on page
20 for details.
Launching the Configuration Manager's Setup Wizard
When you start the Configuration Manager (

The
Setup Wizard
page opens.
Each of the six steps guides you in configuring a specific setting or group of settings.
When you click
Next
or
Back
, you move from one step to another.
Step 1. Setup Login Password
To view or change configuration settings, you must enter a password. Your router has
a default password (
admin
) that was set by the factory and that you used to access the
Configuration Manager
initially. If you want to keep the default password, click
Next
to
skip this step. Otherwise, to safeguard your configuration, particularly if you make
changes, we recommend that you change the login password.
1
On the
Setup Login Password
page, type the old password in the
Old Password
field.
2
Type the new password in the
New Password
field.
3
Type the new password in the
Reconfirm
field, then click
Next
.
Note
: If you forget the new password, you won't have access to the Configuration
Manager and will need to restore the device to its factory settings, thus losing any
changes you made to your router's configuration. To avoid this problem, we
recommend that you write the new password here and also save it in some other
convenient location.
PASSWORD:______________________________________
Please refer to
Resetting the Router to the Default Configuration
on page 8 or
The
Reset to Default Dialog
on page 59 for more information about restoring the router's
default settings.
Step 2. Setup Time Zone
The
Time Zone
setting is not configured initially. You can set it to your current locale
and change it later, as needed, if you are traveling across time zones.

dropdown menu, then click
Next
.
Step 3. WAN Type Setup
The
WAN Type
refers to the protocol used by your Internet Service Provider in
establishing your Internet connection. By default,
WAN Type
is set to your 3G USB
modem, a wireless cellular connection.
Configuring the WAN Type
When you select one of the
WAN Type
protocol settings and click
Next
, a new page
opens where you can configure the
WAN Type
that you chose. Please check with your
service provider if you are unsure which
WAN Type
to choose.
•
Static IP Address
- Typically you have to request and pay extra for a static IP
address.
•
Dynamic IP Address
- DSL modem users who do not need to enter a
password and Cable modem users should choose this WAN type.

•
PPPoE
- Choose this type if your ADSL connection uses PPPoE.
•
PPTP
- The Point to Point Tunneling Protocol is more common in corporate
environments and most users will not use this setting.

L2TP
- The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol is more common in corporate
environments and most users will not use this setting.
•
3G Cellular Modem
- Select this if you are using your 3G modem to connect
to the Internet. (If you are using the 3G modem as the backup to a
broadband modem, you'll need to use the Configuration Manager's
Advanced
program to configure this setup. Please refer to
3G Failover
on
The Basic
Setup Page
on page 35.)
If you are using
Static IP Address
,
Dynamic IP Address
,
PPPoE
,
PPTP
, or
L2TP
,
then the
Ethernet port is the
WAN port. Please check with your service provider before
changing the default setting and choosing an alternate.
If you accept the default setting (
Cellular Modem
), then the Ethernet port is the LAN
port.

If your ISP uses Static IP addressing, select the
Static IP Address
button on the
Select
WAN Type
menu. The following page opens:
