11. Linksys Port Forwarding
This chapter will cover a few simple configurations for the Linksys router. Please understand we
do not support this product and will not give tech support on it. If you need Technical support on
this router you must call Linksys. This Chapter is to offer some help to the installer and end user
nothing more.
To access the Web-based Utility, launch Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, and enter the
Router’s default IP address, 192.168.1.1, in the Address field. Then, press Enter. A password
request page will appear. (Non-Windows XP users will see a similar screen.) Leave the User
Name field blank. The first time you open the Web-based Utility, use the default password
admin. (You can set a new password from the Administration tab’s Management screen.) Click
the OK button to continue.
The first screen that appears displays the Setup tab. This allows you to change the Router's
general settings. Change these settings as described here and click the Save Settings button to
apply your changes or Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
