Game Adapter's Web-based Utility

Overview

The Game Adapter is designed to function properly after configuration using
the Setup Wizard. However, if you would like to change these settings or make
more advanced configuration changes, use your web browser and the Wireless-
G Game Adapter's Web-based Utility. This chapter explains how to use the
Utility.

Starting the Web-based Utility

1. Open your web browser, and enter the Game Adapter's IP address (the
default is 192.168.1.250). Press the Enter key, and the screen shown in
Figure 6-1 will appear. In lowercase letters, enter the default password,
admin, in the Password field. Click the OK button. You can set a new pass-
