Network Connection of the Router
Before installing the router, you need a computer equipped with an Ethernet card or wireless
LAN interface. To simplify the connection, it is recommended to use an Ethernet card to
connect to a LAN. Follow the steps below to install and connect the router to PCs:
Step 1
: Select a power source. The router can be powered by +12~48V DC power input, or
via a PoE (Power over Ethernet) PSE Ethernet switch.
Step 2
: Connect a computer to the router. Use either a straight-through Ethernet cable or
cross-over cable to connect the ETH1 port of the router to a computer. Once the LED of the
LAN port lights up, which indicates the connection is established, the computer will initiate a
DHCP request to retrieve an IP address from the AP router.
Step 3
: Configure the router on a web-based management utility. Open a web browser on
your computer and type
http://192.168.10.1
(default gateway IP of the router) in the address
box to access the webpage. A login window will pop up where you can enter the default login
name
admin
and password
admin
. For security reasons, we strongly recommend you to
change the password. Click on
