UIP 1868P Router Configuration Guide

The UIP1868P can function as your primary gateway/router or as a client
within an existing network configuration.
If you currently have broadband access and a gateway/router installed at
your location, you may add the UIP1868P as a client to your network. If
you currently have broadband internet access and do not have a router,
you may install your UIP1868P as the primary router to your network.

Plug one end of the enclosed Ethernet cable into the WAN port on the
back of the UIP1868P. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into your
router/gateway which is connected to your broadband modem.

The UIP1868P supports the two most common broadband connection
protocols: DHCP (most common connection type found with Cable
Modem) and PPPoE (most DSL providers use this connection type).



Setting up with DHCP

The UIP1868P is configured for use with Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) by default. If your broadband connection uses DHCP,
simply connect your phone's WAN port to your broadband modem
and then connect the phone’s power cord to an AC power outlet.



Setting up with PPPoE

If your broadband connection uses PPPoE, you will need to configure
the UIP 1868P built-in router by inputting the user name and
password provided by your Internet Service Provider. Follow the steps
below to configure the UIP1868P to use a PPPoE-based connection.

a) Connect a

computer with a
web browser
directly to the LAN
port of your
UIP1868P.

b) Type http://192.168.15.1

(the default IP address of
your UIP1868P) into the
address bar of your web
browser. Then press the
Enter key. (See Figure #1)

c) You should now see your

UIP1868P’s System
Information Screen.
(See Figure #2)

d) In the menu bar down the left

side of the screen, select WAN.

e) In the menu bar on the top of

the screen, select PPPoE. This
opens the WAN PPPoE
Configuration screen.
