CHAPTER 4

4.1 Navigating the Web Browser Interface

The Gateway's management interface includes four key

menus: Status, Help, Tools, and Setup.

The Status and Help menus provide general information on

the current settings and how to configure the Gateway.

The Setup menu is used to configure the LAN, WAN and

wireless interface, as well as other advanced functions.

While the Tools menu is used to reset the Gateway, restore

the factory settings, or upgrade firmware.

4.1.1 Setting a Password

If this is your first time to access the Gateway, you should

define a new Administrator password, record it and put it in

a safe place. From the Main Menu, select "Setup" and enter

the default password for the Administrator (i.e., "admin").

Then select "Change Password" and follow the instructions

on the screen (see Section 4.3.1 "Change Password"). Note

that passwords can consist of 3 to 12 alphanumeric charac-

ters and are not case sensitive.
