Chapter 5: Configure the Gateway
Configuring the Linksys BEFCMUH4
This chapter will show you how to configure the Gateway to function in your
network and gain access to the Internet through your Internet Service Provider
(ISP). Your ISP may require the use of a Host Name and Domain Name. You
will need 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. Because you are now using the Gateway to share Internet access
among several computers, you will use the setup information to configure the
Gateway instead of your PC. You only need to configure the Gateway once
using the first computer you set up.
1. Open your web browser. (It is 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 field. Press the Enter key.
2. An Enter Network Password window, shown in below figure, will appear
(For Windows XP users, the screen may look different). Leave the User
Name field empty, and enter admin in lowercase letters in the Password
field (admin is the default password). Then, click the OK button.
3. The Gateway configuration screen will appear. Press Basic tab and then
select Setup menu. Based on the setup instructions from your ISP, you
may need to provide the following information.
