How to open the browser-based utility

To access some advanced settings, you need to open the browser-based utility.

To open the browser-based utility:

Run Cisco Connect, click Change under Router settings, click Advanced

settings, then click OK.

– or –

Open a web browser on a computer connected to your network, then go

to 192.168.1.1.

The router prompts you for a user name and password.

Enter the user name and password, then click OK. The utility’s main menu

opens.

TIP

If you set up your router without using Cisco Connect, your router’s

default password is admin. (You can leave the user name blank.)

How to manually set up your router

Although running Cisco Connect is the easiest way to set up and maintain your

router, advanced users may want to manually configure their router. Be careful

when changing settings using this method.

To manually set up your router:

If you have started the Cisco Connect setup, exit Cisco Connect.

Connect your router’s power adapter to a power outlet.

Connect an Ethernet cable to the computer and to an available numbered

Ethernet (blue) port on the back of your router.
