CONFIGURATION


POWER CYCLE FEATURE

The Configuration tab contains the Power Cycle control feature. The Power
Cycle feature is useful for rebooting routers should a connectivity issue arise.
Simply plug the router into POD1. Should a router lock up occur the units will be
rebooted via the power cycling of POD1 when your chosen domain cannot be
PINGed by the iP-1. This feature ships disabled and can be enabled using the
checkbox.

Before you enable this feature, be sure to configure the settings you require.
After you enable the Power Cycle feature the settings cannot be changed
unless you disable the feature again.

Please note: if you have a Dynamic IP address it is not advisable to plug your
Cable/DSL modem into POD1 as a reboot of the modem could result in a new
IP address being assigned to the modem and so could result in remote access
issues if you do not know what the new IP address is. If you have a static IP
address this is not an issue and the modem can also be plugged into POD1.

There are 3 user definable fields to this feature.

The ‘PING Address’ field is the internet address that the unit will use to check
network connectivity. The default is our web domain (www.juicegoose.com) and
can be left as is. If you wish to choose another domain simply type the address
