.
3.2 Check the Installation
The control LEDs of the WLAN Router are clearly visible and the status of the network link
can be seen instantly:
1. With the power source on, once the device is connected to the broadband modem, the
Power, CPU, LAN, WLAN and WAN port LEDs of the WLAN Router will blink for one time
indicating a normal status.
2. When the WAN Port is connected to the ADSL/Cable modem, the WAN LED will light up.
3. When the LAN Port is connected to the computer system, the LAN LED will light up.
3.3 Set up the Computer
The default IP address of the Router is 192.168.1.1, the default Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0. Both of these parameters can be changed as you want. In this guide, we
will use the default values for description.
Connect the local PC to the LAN port on the Router. There are then two ways to configure
the IP address for your PC.
Configure the IP address manually
1. Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.
2.
Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx (“xxx” range from 2
to 254). The Subnet Mask is 255.255.2
55.0 and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (Router’s
default IP address).
Obtain an IP address automatically
1. Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in
Obtain an IP address automatically
mode on your PC.
2. Power off the Router and PC. Then turn on the Router and restart the PC. The built-in
DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
Now, you can run the Ping command in the
command prompt
to verify the
network connection between your PC and the Router. Open a command prompt,
and type in
ping 192.168.1.1
, then press
Enter.
