Fig. 4.Connecting a managing computer and an SMC2582W-B via Ethernet.

You can use either a cross-over Ethernet cable (included in the package) or a switch/hub with 2 nor-

mal Ethernet cables.

NOTE: One connector of the Ethernet cable must be plugged into the LAN/CONFIG Ethernet jack

of the SMC2582W-B for configuration.

2.3.2. Changing the TCP/IP Settings of the Managing Computer

Use the Windows Network Control Panel Applet to change the TCP/IP settings of the managing

computer,so that the IP address of the computer and the IP address of the SMC2582W-B are in the

same IP subnet.Set the IP address of the computer to 192.168.2.xxx (the default IP address of the

SMC2582W-B is 192.168.2.50) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

TIP: You can use SMC2582W-B Configuration Utility on the companion CD-ROM to scan

for all the SMC2582W-Bs on the network.Double-click a scanned SMC2582W-B to launch

the Web browser to manage the SMC2582W-B.Note that this utility does not discover the

SMC2682W.

NOTE: On Windows 2000/XP,SMC2582W-B Configuration Utility can only be run by a

user with administrator privilege.

NOTE: For some versions of Windows,the computer needs to be restarted for the

changes of TCP/IP settings to take effect.
