4.5 Setting your NBG-418N to Client Bridge Mode
1 Connect your computer to the LAN port of the NBG-418N.
2 The default LAN IP address of the NBG-418N is 192.168.1.1 in router mode (192.168.1.2 by default
in non-router mode). In router mode, the NBG-418N can assign your computer an IP address, so
you must set your computer to get an IP address automatically (computer factory default) or give it
a fixed IP address in the range between 192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.254.
3 After you’ve set your computer’s IP address, open a web browser such as Internet Explorer and
type the IP address of the NBG-418N as the web address in your web browser.
4 Log into the Web Configurator. See the Chapter 2 on page 17 for instructions on how to do this.
