When the Online LED is lit solid, all gateway initialization and startup steps have been
completed successfully, and the gateway should be capable of providing connectivity
between your PCs on the gateway LAN-side and your cable operator on the gateway
WAN-side.
Mandatory User Confi guration
This feature allows you to confi gure the gateway to function in your network and gain access
to the Internet through your cable company. Your ISP may require the use of a Host Name and
Domain Name. You will need to get the setup information from your ISP. If you do not have this
information, please contact your ISP before proceeding.
The instructions from your ISP will tell you how to set up your PC for Internet access.
Also, you must disable any Internet log-on software (such as Ivasion Winpoet or Enternet 300)
and any fi rewall software (such as ZoneAlarm and Watchdog) on all of your PCs.
To set up your gateway for internet access, you will use its built-in web pages feature. The
gateway includes a built-in HTTP server which can deliver many web-style pages of
information with which you can observe your current gateway settings and make changes.
1. Open your web browser. (It’s all right if you get an error
message at this point. Continue following these directions).
Enter http://192.168.100.1 in the browser’s Address fi eld if
your gateway is in the CM Mode, or http://192.168.0.1 if it
is in the RG or CH Mode. Press the Enter key.
2. An Enter Network Password window appears (for Windows
XP users, the screen may look different). Leave the User
Name fi eld empty, and enter admin in lowercase letters in
the Password fi eld (admin is the default password). Then,
click the OK button.
