D-Link DSL-504 User Manual - Management

DSL-504 ADSL Router User’s Guide 

Management 

In order to access the web-based management interface, it is necessary for both 

the PC (used for management) and the Router to be on the same IP subnet. You 

can either change the IP settings of the PC or change the IP address of the 

Router. See Chapter 3 for information about assigning IP addresses on the 

network and changing the IP address of the device. Appendix B contains a 

general discussion of IP addressing. 

To use the web-based management software, run the browser you have installed 

on your computer and direct it to the IP address defined for the device. The first 

time you access the web-based manager you will need to type the default IP 

address, 192.168.0.1, in the addressbar of the browser. The URL in the address 

bar should read: http://192.168.0.1. If you change the IP address of the router, 

then you will use the new IP address to access the web-based manager. 

Important Note: In order to save any changes made to the Router (such as changing the IP address) 

you must go to the Save Changes window and save the configuration settings to non-volatile RAM. 

In the page that opens, click on the Login to web-based management module
