How to login to the HTEM4 GUI
Login Using Windows-based PC or MAC
- Connect the HT-EM4 Adapter to a Windows PC or MAC
Using an Ethernet cable, plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the
adapter and the other end into a Windows PC or MAC. Power on the
adapter by plugging in the power supply provided.
- Make sure PC/MAC is on the same network as HT-EM4
Before you log into the HT-EM4’s GUI, your computer’s IP address must
be in the same subnet as the HT-EM4. This allows your computer to
communicate with the HT-EM4.
NOTE: You can find the HT-EM4’s assigned IP address by logging into your
network’s gateway device and looking at the list of connected DHCP client
devices. The HT-EM4 hostname will display as REV_A1000000.
- Log into the HT-EM4 Adapter
Now open a web browser and type in the IP address of the HT-EM4 device
in the URL bar. A pop-up will appear prompting you to sign in. Enter admin
for the Username and admin for the Password. Click Sign in.

the HT-EM4.
- First Channel: This displays the first channel frequency of the HT-EM4.
- Number of Channels: This displays the number of the HT-EM4’s working
channel.
- Ethernet TX: This displays the number of Ethernet packets transmitted by this
node since MoCA link up.
- Ethernet RX: This displays the number of Ethernet packets received by this
node since MoCA link up.

Network
Use this screen to modify the HT-EM4 IP mode.
IP Configuration: This field allows you to select the IP Mode that you
want the HT-EM4 to use.
- DHCP automatic configuration: Your HT-EM4 will receive a dynamic
IP address from your Router.
- Link Local automatic configuration: Choose it if there’s no DHCP server
in your network, and you want to make zero-config for the IP.
- DHCP & Link Local automatic configuration: Your HT-EM4 will receive
a dynamic IP address from your Router.
- Static IP Address: Allow you to configure your HT-EM4’s IP address, netmask,
and gateway manually.
MoCA
Use this screen to view and modify the HT-EM4’s MoCA-related
settings.

NOTE: Do not change any of the settings in this screen unless you have
a good reason to do so!
- Adapter Name: Select the adapter name that you wish to use from the
dropdown list.
- Network Search Enabled: Use this field to control whether the HT-EM4
should look for a MoCA network to which to connect.
- Check the box to have the HT-EM4 search for a MoCA network and,
if it finds one, connect to it. If the MoCA network to which the HT-EM4
is currently connected goes offline, the HT-EM4 will look for another
MoCA network.
- Uncheck the box if you do not want the HT-EM4 to search for a MoCA
network. If the HT-EM4 is currently connected to a MoCA network,
it will remain connected. If the MoCA network to which the HT-EM4
is currently connected goes offline, the HT-EM4 will not look for
another.
- Channel Plan: The MoCA specification defines several channel plans for
communication on the cable network.
This field allows you to select the channel plan that you want the HT-EM4
to use. Select the channel plan that you wish to use from the dropdown list.

- LOF: This field allows you to set the Last Operating Frequency that you want
the HT-EM4 to use.
- Tx Power: Use this field to set the power at which the HT-EM4 transmits (TX)
over the cable network, from 0 to 10.
- Beacon Power Level: Use this field to set the HT-EM4’s beacon power on the
cable network, from 0 to 10. The MoCA beacon allows other devices on the
cable network to detect the HTEM4.
- Preferred NC (Network Controller): Each MoCA network has a Network
Coordinator (NC) which acts as a manager for all the other devices
on the cable network.
- By default, the NC is chosen from the pool of MoCA devices based
on its suitability (signal strength, etc.) To base NC status on merit,
or if you have specified another device as “preferred” and do not
want the HT-EM4 to compete with it, uncheck the box.
- When one device is set to be the “preferred” NC, it will be the NC
whenever it is available on the network (if multiple devices are
“preferred”, the most suitable one will be chosen). Check the box
to add the HT-EM4 to the preferred group.
- Security Enabled: The MoCA specification allows you to secure your
network by defining a password that all devices must use before they join
the network. Use this to turn encryption on the cable network on or off.
- Check the box (recommended) to turn cable network encryption
on. When encryption is on, only devices that supply the common
Password can communicate over the cable network.
- Uncheck the box to turn cable network encryption off. When
encryption is off, any device connected to the cable wiring can
communicate over the cable network. The Password you set has
no effect.
- New Password: When Security is enabled, enter the cable network password
you want to use. All MoCA devices must be configured to use this password
before they may connect to the cable network.
- Confirm Password: Enter the cable network password again that you want
to use.
- Save: Click this to save your changes to the fields in this screen.
- Cancel: Click this to return the fields in this screen to their last-saved values
without saving your changes.
