In order to access the Internet through the router, you must check the TCP/IP settings before configuring the router.
Step 1: Configure TCP/IP on Client PC

With Ethernet network interface.
Must have TCP/IP protocol installed.
Set client PC with obtain an IP
address automatically.
With a web browser installed: Internet Explorer 5.x or later.
The ADSL Router is configured with the
default IP address of 192.168.1.1
and subnet mask of
255.255.255.0.
As t
he
DHCP server is
Enabled
by default,
the DHCP clients should be able to access the
ADSL Router.
Or
you could assign an IP address to the host PC first for initial configuration.
You also can manage the ADSL Router through a web browser-based manager:
ADSL ROUTER CONTROL
PANEL
. The ADSL Router manager uses the HTTP protocol via a web browser to allow you to set up and manage
the device.
To configure the device via web browser, at least one properly configured PC must be connected to the network
(either connected directly or through an external hub/switch to the LAN port of the device).
If TCP/IP is not already installed, follow the steps below for installation.
