Configuration Guides
This guide will help you manually configure your iConnect 625W ADSL modem to connect to the Internet, then assist with configuring wireless security.
Before you start, there are some things you need to check:
- Does your computer have an Ethernet port? You need one to begin the configuration, even if you're going to use wireless. - Is your wireless network adapter or Airport card already installed? You need to make sure your wireless equipment is installed and ready to use first. - Is your computer configured correctly? Check our guides for Windows XP and Mac OSX. - Is your modem already configured? Your modem needs to be at "factory defaults" for this guide - you may need to http://support.hotkey.net.au

reset the modem if you've set it up before. - Is your computer running at least Windows XP SP2 or Mac OSX 10.3.9? This guide uses a newer wireless security method not available in previous versions of Windows or MacOS. Internet connection configuration
Step 1: Connect your modem to mains power and switch it on, then connect an Ethernet cable from one of the available Ethernet ports on the iConnect 625W to the Ethernet port on your computer.
Step 2: Load the modem's configuration screen in your browser (Internet Explorer if you're using Windows, Safari if you're on a Mac). The address you need to go to is http://192.168.1.254/. You should see the following login screen:

Step 2: Toward the bottom, choose the Pre-Shared Key option, then enter a password of your choice in the PSK String: box.
This password must have letters and numbers, must be between 8 and 63 characters and should be something you can easily remember - otherwise you may have difficulties with setting up the wireless connection on your computer. An example of a good password you could use is your first name, followed by your telephone number (without spaces).
Once you've chosen and entered your password, click the Apply button.

Windows XP (SP2 or better):
Click Start, open the Control Panel. If it says "Pick a category" up the top, click the "Switch to Classic view" link in the topleft of the window. Click Network Connections. Ignore anything in the Dialup or Broadband sections - the connection to your modem will be in LAN or high-speed Internet.

Your iConnect 625W is the one called WLAN-AP-625W - select this network and then click the Connect button.
A window will appear, asking for a Network key: - enter the password you chose earlier on (the PSK String). Enter it again in the Confirm network key: box, then click OK. Wait for Windows to say it's connected, then close all windows down.

Mac OSX (10.3.9 or better):
Open Macintosh HD, navigate to your Applications folder, then open the Internet Connect application.
Select AirPort from the options along the top. If the AirPort Power: shows as being Off, click the Turn AirPort On button. In the Network: dropdown, find and select WLAN-AP-625W.
Internet Connect will prompt you to enter a password - type the password in that you chose earlier (the PSK String).

Internet Connect will now configure the AirPort connection to your modem. Open Safari - you should now be able to browse websites wirelessly!
