SMART/RG SR400ac 802.11ac Gigabit Router User Manual 204.4.2 Before You Begin Before you install the device, please pay attention to the following items:  When the device is connected to a computer, hub, router or switch, the Ethernet cable should be less than 100 meters.  Do not place this device on an unstable surface or support. Do not put this device on the ground.  Keep the device clean. Avoid the device from direct sunshine. Avoid any metal in the device.  Place the device in the center of the area, and try to optimize the wireless coverage. 4.4.3 Connecting the Device To connect the device, do as follows: Step 1 Connect one end of the RJ45 cable to the LAN interface of the wireless router. Step 2 Connect the other end of the RJ45 cable to your PC. Step 3 Connect the power adapter to the power socket of the wireless router. 4.5 Operation Range The operation range of the wireless router depends on the actual environment. The path and effect of signal transmission vary according to the deployment in a house or an office. 4.6 Roaming Suppose that several wireless routers run in the same network. Each wireless router serves as a BSS that has its coverage range. One wireless client (for example, a notebook PC or PDA) can realize roaming from one AP to another AP accurately. In that case, the wireless client can communicate with the other devices within the coverage range of the wireless router. We suggest indoor use.
SMART/RG SR400ac 802.11ac Gigabit Router User Manual 21 To realize roaming in the coverage range of the wireless router by a wireless client, you need to set the APs properly as follows:  Set the same SSID for different APs.  The SSIDs of all the computers and PDAs should be consistent with that of APs.  All the BSSs must use the same wireless channel.  If the encryption function is enabled, all wireless routers must be configured with the same encryption mode and encryption key for establishing connection.  Wireless routers must keep coverage of uninterrupted wireless signals in the whole operation environment. Hence, please put wireless routers to the appropriate places.
SMART/RG SR400ac 802.11ac Gigabit Router User Manual 22 5 TCP/IP Settings and Wireless Connection Introduction 5.1 TCP/IP Settings By default, the LAN IP address of the wireless router is 192.168.1.1, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, and the DHCP server is enabled. It is recommended to set the network adapter to Obtain an IP address automatically. Then, your PC obtains the TCP/IP settings, including the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS address automatically through the wireless router. If you know the settings of the current LAN interface, you can manually set the TCP/IP properties of the network adapter, so that your PC can communicate with the wireless router. To manually set the network adapter, do as follows: Step 1 Right-click the icon of My Network Places and choose Properties from the menu. The Network Connections window appears.
SMART/RG SR400ac 802.11ac Gigabit Router User Manual 23 Step 2 Right-click the network adapter icon and choose Properties from the menu.
