Introduction
Overview
W300 is a home and SOHO oriented wireless broadband router
integrating ADSL, AP and LAN Switch. It provides triple-play services
such as Internet data, voice access, and video access. W300
provides priority access for different services with sophisticated ATM-
based and IP-based QoS to meet different requirements for high-
speed Internet access, IPTV Video on Demand (VoD), live-broadcast
access and voice access. Wireless encryption and built-in firewall
prevent unauthorized users from accessing the network, ensuring
the security of legal users accessing the wired and wireless networks.
W300 supports TR-069 protocol for allowing overall remote network
management.
Note: ZTE CORPORATION reserves the right to modify technical
specifications in this manual without any notification in advance.

Product Installation
Hardware Connections
Follow the steps below to perform hardware connections.
1. Place the W300 router on the plane surface. Minimize obstacles
and the distance between the W300 router and the wireless
terminal.
2. Perform ADSL uplink connection
A W300 router can access the ISP’s network in ADSL uplink
mode, as shown in Figure 3.
FIGURE 3 ADSL UPLINK CONNECTION
ZXV10 W300 Wireless ADSL Router User Manual
6 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION
If a telephone needs to be installed before the splitter, the user
must connect a voice filter in the Line port of the splitter; then
connect the telephone after the voice filter. The other port
connections can be referred to Figure 3.
A splitter consists of three ports:
¾ Line: The port connected to the ADSL subscriber line.
¾ Modem: The port connected to DSL port of W300.
¾ Phone: The port connected to a telephone.
3. Use an RJ-45 cable to connect the W300’s LAN1 port to a
computer or another network device.
4. Connect the power adapter to the device and plug the power
adapter to the AC power outlet. W300 will be on after pushing
the power switch button.
Caution: Please use the companion power adapter. The
other power adaptor may make W300 unable to work
normally or even damage it.
Default Settings
The factory default settings for a W300 router are listed as follows:
IP address: 192.168.1.1; subnet mask: 255.255.255.0.
Use the DHCP server by default (i.e., the IP address can be
obtained from the W300 router automatically via DHCP).
Line coding: Auto negotiation (T1.413/G.DMT/G.LITE/ADSL2
/ADSL2+).
To log into the configuration page of W300, use the username and
password marked on the label of W300 cover.
Default network name (SSID) for WLAN (Wi-Fi), wireless
encryption mode, and encryption key are also marked on the label
of the W300 cover.

Troubleshooting
This chapter describes how to troubleshoot problems when installing
and using a W300. For any problems not addressed here; contact
the service provider for help.
TABLE 4 TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Troubleshooting
The power indicator
is OFF when the
device is powered
on.
Make sure to use the power adapter included in the
package. Make sure that the adapter is connected properly
to the device and the power outlet.
The DSL indicator is
OFF when the
telephone line is
connected.
Make sure to use a standard telephone line (e.g., the
companion telephone line). Make sure that the lines are
connected properly. Check all the port connections. Wait for
60 seconds for the device to establish an ADSL connection.
When the telephone
line is connected,
the DSL indicator is
in slowly flashing
status.
It indicates the connection failure between the device and
the office-end DSLAM. Please make sure that the lines are
connected properly. If a telephone is required to be installed
in front of the splitter, make sure to install a voice filter
properly.
The LAN indicator is
OFF when the
Ethernet cable is
connected.
Make sure that the Ethernet cable is connected properly to
the computer and the W300 router. Make sure that the
device and computer are all powered on.
WLAN is unable to
be connected
Make sure that the Wi-Fi indicator is ON. Make sure that the
wireless network adapter is set properly. Check the network
name, encryption mode, and encryption key to make sure
that they are matched the settings of the W300 router.
PC is unable to
access the network
Use the ping command to check if the IP address of the
network port of the W300 (192.168.1.1 by default) can
be pinged through from the computer. If it cannot be
pinged through successfully, check the Ethernet
connection and whether the indicator status is normal.
It is recommended that the local IP address and DNS
server address are set to be obtained automatically.
It is recommended to close all the running firewall and
VPN software.
It is required to disable the proxy server setting of the
Web browser (e.g., IE).
The failure reason may be that the office-end devices of
the ADSL service provider are being upgraded or in
maintenance.
