Even if you elect to use a static IP address a DDNS service will add value in two ways. First, when the networks static
addressing assignment fails there is a mandatory waiting period before the endpoint is allowed to reinitiate the request for
a static address registration. During this period of time the network will dynamically assign addresses to the end point. A
DDNS service will make the end point network addressable (by name) during this period of time. Secondly, a name
service allows your end point to be known by a name that is independent of network addressing. Addressing a unit by
name may be easier for end users to remember and will, over a long period of time, reduce maintenance problems.

Once the PC has been set up properly and physically connected to the router you are ready to begin configuring the
router for your application. To access the Administration menu use a conventional web browser pointed at http://
192.168.1.10. A login screen appears as shown below. The default User ID is “ctek” (without the quotes) and the default
Password is also “ctek”. Be sure to change the user ID and password and record your new selections.
