It is recommended to make initial configuration changes by connecting a

PC directly to the Mini Broadband Router’s LAN port. The Mini Broadband

Router has a default IP address of 192.168.2.1 and a subnet mask of

255.255.255.0. You must set your PC IP address to be on the same subnet

as the Mini Broadband Router (that is, the PC and Mini Broadband Router

addresses must both start 192.168.2.x).

To access the Mini Broadband Router’s management interface, follow these

steps:

1.

Use your web browser to connect to the management interface using
the default IP address of 192.168.2.1.

2.

Log into the interface by entering the default username “admin” and
password “smcadmin,” then click OK.
