If you would like to configure the TCP/IP settings manually, assign an
available address from a suitable address range to the LANCOM. Also set
whether or not it is to operate as a DHCP server. Confirm your entry with
Apply.

Enter the wireless parameters. Select a network name (SSID) and a radio
channel. Turn on if necessary the function for ’closed network’. Confirm
your choice with Next.

In the following 'Security settings' window, specify a password for config-
uration access. Note that the password is case-sensitive and ensure that
it is sufficiently long (at least 6 characters).

You may specify whether the device may only be configured from the local
network or whether remote configuration via the WAN (i.e. a remote net-
work) is also permissible.

Please note that enabling this will also permit remote configuration
via the Internet. You should always make sure that the configuration
access is suitably protected, e.g. with a password.

In the next window, select your DSL provider from the list that is displayed.
Confirm your choice with Apply.

If you select 'My provider is not listed here,' you must enter the transfer
protocol used by your DSL provider manually in the next window. Confirm
your choice with Apply.

Connect charge protection can limit the cost of DSL connections to a pre-
determined amount if desired. Confirm your choice with Apply.

Entering the password in the web browser

When you are prompted for a user name and password
by your web browser when accessing the device in the
future, enter your personal values to the corresponding
fields. Please note that the password is case-sensitive.

If you are using the common configuration account,
enter the corresponding password only. Leave the user
name field blank.
