2 INTRODUCTION With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at any time, day or night has become a standard requirement for most people. The era of the standalone PC is waning. Networking technology is moving out of the exclusive domain of corporations and into homes with at least two computers. This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with wireless LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the business and home, it saves you the cost of installing a separate modem and ISP line for each computer, while providing ready connection for the users, with or without the network wires. Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, allowing more than two computers to access the Internet at the same time means less affordable, higher costs. Thus, there is a need to share one legal IP address over a single Internet connection to link the home with the Internet. The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet connection through an Internet sharing device can solve high network access costs. All linked computers can make full use of broadband capabilities over such a device. This device not only comes equipped with a wide range of features, but also can be installed and configured right out of the box. This device supports a simple local area network and Internet access share, offering great cost savings. The local area network connects up home computers while also allowing any of the computers to access the Internet, share resources, or play online games—the basis of the family computing lifestyle. Applications: Broadband Internet access: Several computers can share one high-speed broadband connection through wireless or wired (WLAN, LAN and WAN-Internet). Resource sharing: Share resources such as printers, scanners and other peripherals. File sharing: Exchange data, messages, and distribute files thus making good use of hard disk space. Online gaming: Through the local area network, online gaming and e-commerce services can be easily setup. Firewall: A built-in firewall function — for security and anti-hack system.

3 Features: ¾ High speed data transfer rate ¾ Supports NAT for share 1 IP address to all LAN user. ¾ Supports PPPoE and PPTP protocol for Dial-Up ADSL. ¾ Supports 64/128 bit WEP Encryption ¾ Supports WPA security ¾ Supports DHCP Server / Client. ¾ Supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play). ¾ Supports virtual server mapping. ¾ Supports packet filtering. ¾ Supports DNS ¾ Simple Firewall protection. ¾ Upgradeable firmware for future function. ¾ Simple setting using Quick Setup. ¾ Easy configuration via WEB Browser.

4 UNPACKING AND SETUP This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Wireless Broadband Router. Unpacking Open the box of the Wireless Broadband Router and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items:  One Wireless Internet Broadband Router  One external power adapter  One CD-Rom with this User’s Guide If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. Setup The setup of the Wireless Broadband Router can be performed properly using the following methods:  The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Broadband Router.  Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the power adapter.  Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the Broadband Router. Do not place heavy objects on the Broadband Router.  Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the Wireless Router in a position that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.

5 HARDWARE INSTALLATION Front Panel The figure below shows the front panel of the Wireless Broadband Router. Wireless Broadband Router Front Panel POWER This indicator lights green when the hub is receives power, otherwise it is off. SYSTEM This indicator blinks green means the Internet Broadband Router is working successful. Otherwise, this indicator always on or off means the function of the Internet Broadband Router is fail. WAN (Link/ACT) The indicators light green when the WAN port was connected to an xDSL/Cable modem successfully. The indicators blink green while the WAN port was transmitting or receiving data on the xDSL/Cable modem. WLAN (ACT) This indicator lights green when there are wireless devices connected and transmitting data to the Wireless Router. LAN (Link/ACT) These indicators light green when the LAN ports were connected successfully. These indicators blink green while the LAN ports were transmitting data. Rear Panel The figure below shows the rear panel of the Wireless Broadband Router. Wireless Broadband Router Rear Panel

6 Antenna There are two 2 dBi Gain Antenna in the rear panel for wireless connection. LAN (1-4) Four RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX ports for connecting to either 10Mbps or 100Mbps Ethernet connections. WAN In the four port broadband router, there is an RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX port for the WAN that will fit the xDSL/Cable modem’s specification need. DC IN Plug the power adapter to this power jack RESET Use a pin-shape item to push to reset this device to factory default settings. It will be useful too when the manager forgot the password to login, but the setting will be back to default setting. Hardware connections Connect the Router using LAN 1. Plug in one end of the network cable to the WAN port of the Wireless Internet Broadband Router. 2. Plug in the other end of the network cable to the Ethernet port of the xDSL or Cable modem. 3.
