PC Configuration To communicate and configure 802.11n AP router, the PC on your LAN must install TCP/IP protocol. Make sure the TCP/IP protocol of the PC is configured for Obtain IP address from DHCP and is connected to LAN (Ethernet) port of the AP router. In doing so, the PC obtains an IP address of 192.168.1.1 from 802.11n AP router. The 802.11n AP router assumes an IP address of 192.168.1.1 without network connectivity. This IP address is used for communicating with the 802.11n AP router via the web UI or Telnet, with the PC connected to the LAN port. The 802.11n AP router assumes a DHCP IP address on the WAN side if connected to the network. In this case user can communicate with the same IP address 192.168.1.1 with PC connected to the LAN port. PC in the network can communicate with the DHCP IP address allocated to 802.11n router. 2.1 TCP/IP Networking Setup Checking TCP/IP Settings for Windows 9x/Me a) Select “Start Æ Control Panel Æ Network”, the window below will appear, b) Click “Properties”, the window below will appear and then click “IP Address” tab, Θʳ If you decide to use DHCP, select “Obtain an IP address automatically”, then click “OK” to confirm your settings.

Configure Wireless Router via Web Based Utility The Wireless Router implements a Web server allowing user configure this device via the web based Utility. This Utility provides comprehensive system management scheme, including system configuration, performance monitoring, system maintenance and administration. 3.1 Access Web Based Configuration Utility To access the Web-Based Configuration Utility, you have to launch your Internet Browser. (MS IE 5.0 or later, Netscape Navigator 4.7 or later). Step1: Enter Wireless Router’s default IP address as http://192.168.1.1 in the Address field then press Enter. Step2: Login dialog box will appear, enter admin as Administrator Name and 1234 as default Administrator Password, and then click “Login” to access Configuration Utility. 17 Step3: After log in, you can see the Main menu as below. 3.2 Operation Mode In this option, you can configure the operation mode which suitable for your environment. The default setting is Gateway. There have three modes is provided: -- Bridge: All Ethernet and wireless interfaces are bridged into a single bridge interface. When Bridge mode is applied, there have some functions change in Internet Settings section. As you can see in below, Internet Settings section only has “LAN”, “DHCP Client”, “VPN Passthrough”, “DNS”, and “Advanced Routing” for Bridge Mode’s configuration. 18 -- Gateway: The first Ethernet port is treated as WAN port. The other Ethernet ports and the wireless interface are bridge together and are treated as LAN ports. -- Ethernet Converter: The wireless interface is treated as WAN port and the Ethernet ports are LAN ports. After Ethernet Converter mode is applied, the WAN will change from Ethernet type to wireless type. There will be five LAN ports and one wireless WAN port. User must configure wireless encryption connection and set the necessary protocols. 19
