Step   4:   Under   Router   SeXngs,   enter   the   desired   IP   address   for   your   router   in   the   

Router   IP   

Address   

field.   The   IP   Address   configured   here   is   the   IP   address   used   to   access   the   web-­‐based   

management   interface.   If   you   change   the   IP   address   here,   you   may   need   to   adjust   your   PC´s   

network   seXngs   in   order   to   access   the   network   again,   and   you   will   need   to   enter   the   new   IP   

address   in   your   browser   address   bar   in   order   to   access   the   router’s   web-­‐based   configuraUon   

interface.      

Step   5:   Click   on   

Save   SeNngs

   to   save   the   current   configuraUon.   

5. How   do   I   change   the   802.11   mode   on   my   router?   

Example:   If   your   device   only   supports   802.11b   or   802.11g   and   it   can’t   connect   to   the   router   

then   you   can   try   to   change   the   802.11   mode   to   solve   the   problem.   If   your   devices   all   use   the   

same   802.11   standard,   you   can   set   an   ‘only’   mode   to   improve   performance.      

Step   1:   Open   an   Internet   browser   (such   as   Internet   Explorer)   and   enter   hMp://192.168.0.1   

into   the   address   bar.   Press   

Enter
