Advanced Configuration The first screen that appears is the Basic Setup screen. This
allows you to change the Routers general settings.
After setting up the Router with the Setup Wizard (located

on the CD-ROM), the Router will be ready for use. However,
if youd like to change its advanced settings, use the
Routers web-based utility. This chapter describes each
web page of the utility and each pages key functions. You
can access the utility via a web browser on a computer
connected to the Router.
The web-based utility has these main tabs: Setup,
Wireless, Security, Access Restrictions, Applications &
Gaming, Administration, and Status. Additional tabs will
be available after you click one of the main tabs.
NOTE: When first installing the Router, you

should use the Setup Wizard on the Setup
