TCP/IP

To access the Internet through the SpeedStream 2614 DSL/Cable Router, you must configure it and your
network computers with same IP subnet. Manually configure the IP address for client computers or obtain
it automatically from the SpeedStream 2614’s DHCP service.

The default network settings for the SpeedStream 2614 are:

IP Address:

192.168.254.254

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Password:

admin

You can change these settings to comply with your network requirements; however, you must first
configure at least one computer to access the SpeedStream 2614 management interface.
