Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 Erasing the Configuration It is sometimes desirable to restore the router to a known blank condition. This can be done by using the Erase function, which will restore all factory settings. After an erase, the router's password will be password, the LAN IP address will be 192.168.0.1, and the router's DHCP client will be enabled. To erase the configuration, click the Erase button. To restore the factory default configuration settings without knowing the login password or IP address, you must use the Default Reset button on the rear panel of the router. See "Restoring the Default Configuration and Password" on page 11-7. Changing the Administrator Password The default password for the router's Web Configuration Manager is password. Netgear recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. From the main menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading, select Set Password to bring up this menu. Figure 9-6: Set Password menu To change the password, first enter the old password, and then enter the new password twice. Click Apply. To change the login idle timeout, change the number of minutes and click Apply. Maintenance 9-9 201-10301-02, May 2005
