Warning: Only use the power adapter is provided from this package, use other
power adapter may cause hardware damage
2. 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.
10
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.

connect to your Broadband Router. Here you may change wireless encryption
settings as well as wireless network parameters.
29
Disable Wireless LAN Interface: Click on to disable the wireless LAN data
transmission.
Band: This is the range of frequencies the gateway will use to communicate
with your wireless devices. As you’re looking for products in stores or on the
Internet, you might notice that you can choose equipment that supports six
different wireless networking technologies: 2.4 GHz(B), 2.4 GHz(G), 2.4
GHz(B+G), 2.4 GHz(N), 2.4 GHz(G+N), and 2.4 GHz(B+G+N).
Mode: Click to select the WLAN AP / Client / WDS / AP+WDS wireless mode.
Default set to AP mode.
Network Type: While Mode is selected to be Client. Click to select the network
type infrastructure or Ad hoc.
SSID: Specify the network name. Each Wireless LAN network uses a unique
Network Name to identify the network. This name is called the Service Set
30
Identifier (SSID). When you set up your wireless adapter, you specify the SSID. If
you want to connect to an existing network, you must use the make up your
own name and use it on each computer. The name can be up to 32
characters long and contain letters and numbers.
Channel Width: There have 2 options – 20MHZ and 40 MHZ [N band only].

changed unless you know what effect the changes will have on your WLAN
Broadband Router.
31
Fragment Threshold: Fragmentation Threshold sets the frame size of incoming
messages (ranging from 256 to 2346 bytes) used as fragmentation boundary. If
the frame size is too big, the heavy interference affects transmission reliability.
If the frame size is too small, it decreases transmission efficiency. Default setting
is 2346.
RTS Threshold: Lower the signal RTS (Request To Send) to promote the
transmission efficiency in condition of noisy environment or too many clients.
Default setting is 2347.
Beacon Interval: Beacon Interval means the period of time between one
beacon and the next one. The default value is 100 (the unit is millisecond, or
1/1000 second). Lower the Beacon Interval to improve transmission
performance in unstable environment or for roaming clients, but it will be
power consuming.
