SMCWHSG44-G is 192.168.2.1) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.) It is
preferred to set the computer to “obtain an IP address automatically” so the
router will give your computer the correct settings automatically.
NOTE: For some versions of Windows, the computer needs to be restarted
for the changes of TCP/IP settings to take effect.

The SMCWHSG44-G is DHCP server enabled by default. After the IP
addressing is configured, launch a Web browser on the managing computer.
Then, go to “http://192.168.2.1” to log on to the Wireless Hotspot Gateway
for Web-based management.
1.8.1. Entering the Password
To log onto the Web based management interface, you will be prompted to
enter the password. For first-time configuration, default password is
“smcadmin”. And then, click the LOGIN button.
