Logging On to the Web Interface
The first time you log on to the Web interface, you will be required to enter a system password in the
Administrative User Setup screen. You will also have the option of changing the user name from the
default setting of admin. After your initial log on, the System Summary or PPP Login [Choose
Connection] screen will display, depending on your connection.
To log on to the Web interface for the first time:
1. In your Microsoft Internet Explorer
Address bar or Netscape Navigator
Location bar, enter the default router IP
address: http://192.168.254.254

displays.
2. You may accept the default user name
admin, or enter a new user name in the
User Name box. The user name is case-
sensitive.
3. Enter a password in the New Password box; then enter the same password in the Confirm New

Note You must enter a password before proceeding. Both user name and password are case-sensitive.
Be sure to record your user name and password. You will need to use them when you log on again.

Delete shortcut key combination, CTRL+X, would be accepted as a valid password character.
