Chapter 4   Internet Access

This chapter helps you to configure the basic functions of the R410 

Router. If you follow these procedures correctly, there should be no 

problem in accessing the Internet via the Router. If you want to have the 

advanced configurations, please read Chapter 5.

4.1     TCP/IP Configuration

Above all, ensure proper Operating System (Windows 95/98/Me/NT/ 

2000/XP) is available on your PCs. Default IP address of the R410 Router 

is 192.168.1.1, and default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values 

refer to your internal network settings. Unless you have specific needs, 

there should be no reason to change them. 

Connect the PCs to the LAN Ports on the rear of the R410 Router. After 

that, there are two means to configure the IP address for your PCs.

Ø

Configure the IP address yourself

1)

   To set up the TCP/IP Protocol for the PCs, which need to be 

configured IP address. 

2)

   Configure the network parameters. IP address is 192.168.1.xxx 

("xxx" is from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and 

Gateway IP is the Router's IP address (the default value is 

192.168.1.1).

Ø

Assign the IP address by the DHCP server built in the R410 Router.

1)      Power everything off, including your PCs, your Cable or DSL 

Modem and the R410 Router.

2)       Connect the PCs and each Switch/Hub on you LAN to the LAN 

Ports on the rear of the Router. 

3)         Connect the DSL /Cable Modem to the WAN port on the rear of 

the Router.

4)         Connect the AC power adapter to the Power port on the rear of 

the Router, and then plug in the supplied AC power. The Router 

will start to work automatically.

5)          Power on the Cable/DSL Modem.
