Asanté FriendlyNET Internet Router with Firewall
•
The router’s dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server function will
assign IP addresses in the range 192.168.123.100 through
192.168.123.199.
•
The router’s default IP address is 192.168.123.254.
•
The Internet service that is connected to the router’s Internet port is con-
nected to an ISP that will supply a dynamic (not fixed) IP address to the
router.
To configure the router:
1. Start your web browser and type http://192.168.123.254 in the location
field. Press the Enter key.
2. Login to the router using the default password (admin) and clicking the
Login button.
3. From the top navigation bar, click on the Setup button.
4. From the WAN Type screen, select the one that best describes your Inter-
net connection. Click the Next button.
5. Fill in any network settings required by your ISP.
6. If you have changed any of the settings, click the Save and Restart Router
buttons.
7. Restart all the computers on your network.
8. To verify your Internet connection, connect to www.asante.com from your
browser.
Note: During normal operation, the router’s case may feel warm. The sturdy
metal case is designed to radiate heat away from the internal electronic compo-
nents. This convection-cooled design is preferred over noisier, fan cooled
routers.
The basic configuration of your Asanté router is now complete. The rest of this
document provides additional information on security, advanced and wireless
settings.
