Only difference is, & I don't think it'll make a difference, I'm getting to it from a netgear 4 port hub. I get to the router's settings using browser, standard address 192.168.1.1 where, unless you've already changed it, either user is admin without pw or you leave user blank & use admin for pw. Can't remember which. Sorry. Just try it both ways. Guess after you get in it's wisest to assign a user & pw. If you've got xwindows installed, you can use netscape, opera, konqueror, etc. to get there. If you don't, maybe you can use lynx in terminal window. I just tried it & it worked okay. If you don't & you have the ports installed, look in /usr/ports/www/lynx. Go into that dir & type: make make install make clean Then you should be able to use it It'll be in /usr/local/bin dir. Of course, it'd be a lot simpler if you had x installed. A lot easier to use a browser there. Hope this helps. ----- Original Message ----- From: "khayman" To: "Jethro" Cc: Sent: Monday, July 16, 2001 9:20 AM Subject: Re: Configuring static linksys router > I'm pretty sure Linksys only supports mods to the config thru a browser > interface.
