User manual ACTIONTEC ECB2200 CONFIGURATION GUIDE

[. . . ] User Configuration Guide The ECB2200 is shipped with factory default configuration that works without any additional parameter changes. However, if a network security password is required or if a specific channel frequency is required, then the configuration will need to be modified. Software Installation The ECB2200 comes with Windows-based configuration software for user to change the operational parameters in User Configuration Mode. [. . . ] The User Login Window will appear on the screen (as shown above) and prompt the user to enter a login password. Once you have logged into the ECB2200, you will be able to change the operational parameters and perform firmware upgrade (See next section for detailed information). Upon completion, the ECB2200 will need to be changed back to MoCA Mode. To change back to MoCA Mode, manually toggle the ECB2200 Configuration Switch to "Run". The reboot process will take approximately 35 seconds to complete. Operational Parameters The User Configuration Interface consists of five main menus ­ Setup, Password, Advanced, MoCA and Upgrade. The operating parameters in each of the five menus are described below: Note: The "Apply" button must be clicked for changes to any of the configuration options to take effect. Setup Menu Figure 3 ­ PC App Setup Page Channel: The Channel parameter provides the user with the ability to control the frequency at which the ECB2200 operates. The user may set the device to operate in "SCAN" mode (default setting) or any one of the 8 fixed D-Band frequencies via this pull down menu. Privacy / Password: Privacy Mode controls whether or not the ECB2200 will encrypt packets on the coaxial interface. The Password parameter under Privacy Mode contains an encryption key that is used by the ECB2200 to encrypt data on the coax interface. If Privacy Mode is enabled, then all the nodes on the same cable wiring will need to have the same Privacy Password in order to form a network. The default Privacy Password is "99999999988888888" (Nine 9's, eight 8's)". Password Menu Figure 4 ­ PC App Password Setup Administrative / Password: The Password Menu contains the login password to the ECB2200 (not to be confused with the Privacy Password for the coaxial network described in the Setup Menu). The login password prevents unauthorized users from accessing the ECB2200. [. . . ] Wait for the "Success!" message on the screen indicating that firmware update has been completed. The firmware that is loaded on the ECB2200 will not be erased if user chooses the option to restore factory defaults via the Reset button. [. . . ]
