2.4 Connecting the Router
Before you install the router, you should connect your PC to the Internet through your
broadband service successfully. If there is any problem, please contact your ISP. After that, please
install the router according to the following steps. Don't forget to pull out the power plug and keep your
hands dry.
1. Power off your PC(s), Cable/DSL modem, and the router.
2. Locate an optimum location for the router. The best place is usually near the center of the area in
which your PC(s) will wirelessly connect. The place must accord with the Installation Environment
Requirements.
3. Adjust the direction of the antenna. Normally, upright is a good direction.
4. Connect the PC(s) and each Switch/Hub on your LAN to the LAN Ports on the router.
5. Connect the DSL/Cable Modem to the WAN port on the router.
6. Connect the AC power adapter to the AC power socket on the router, and the other end into an
electrical outlet. The router will start to work automatically.
7. Power on your PC(s) and Cable/DSL modem.
Section Three: Quick Installation Guide
After connecting the 54M Wireless Router into your network, you should configure it. This chapter
describes how to configure the basic functions of your 54M Wireless Router. These procedures only
take you a few minutes. You can access the Internet via the router immediately after successfully
configured.
3.1 TCP/IP configuration
The default IP address of the 54Mbps Wireless Router is 192.168.1.254, and the default
Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be seen from the LAN. They can be changed
as you desire, as an example we use the default values for description in this guide.
Connect the local PCs to the LAN ports on the router. There are then two means to configure
the IP address for your PCs.
Configure the IP address manually
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC(s). If you need instructions as to how to do this.
2) Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is from 2 to 254),
Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.254
(The router's default IP address)
