Configuring D-Link DSL-500 Router

The default IP address of these routers is generally 192.168.0.1, but you should check the manual supplied with the router to confirm this. If all is well you should be able to connect to the router in your web browser.

When logging into the router configuration you will be asked for a username and password. The default values for these are;
Username: admin
Password: admin
If you can't remember the default password, press and hold the small reset button at the back for a minimum of 6 seconds. This will reset the router to it's factory condition.

Once you've entered the username and password, you should be presented with the default configuration screen (click on small screenshot image to open a full-size view in a new window. Enter the following information:-
