Logging In to the Web-Based Utility
Take the Windows XP operating system and the Internet Explorer 6.0 as examples.
Ensure that the CPE is connected to the PC. To log in to the Web-based utility, do as follows:
1. Set the IP address of the PC and ensure that the IP address of the PC is in the same
network segment as that of the CPE.
NOTE:
By default, the IP address of the CPE is 192.168.1.1 and the subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
If the CPE is working as a routing device, it is recommended that the IP address and
DNS settings be obtained automatically.
2. Start the Internet Explorer, enter http://192.168.1.1 in the address bar, and then press
Enter.
3. Enter the user name and the password (both are user by default) in the login window,
and then click Login.
4. After the user name and the password are verified, you can perform operations on the
Web-based utility.
