Configuring your Static IP on CISCO modem

The below step-by-step guide shows you how to configure your static IP on Cisco modem:

By default, Melita’s wireless modems are set to DHCP.

With the DHCP function enabled, no additional changes in setup are required for the internet connection to work.

To be able to change the connection mode from DHCP to Static IP, kindly follow the below steps:

  • Enter the IP 192.168.0.1 into the address bar of your browser and click enter to load the interface of the modem.
  • By default, the User Name and Password need to be left empty.

If you had previously changed the login details of the modem, enter the correct User Name and Password and click Log In.
