Chapter 3: Basic Installation
The router can be configured with your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard
application in the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me, etc. The
product provides a very easy and user-friendly interface for configuration.
PCs must have an Ethernet interface installed properly and be connected to the router either directly or
through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP address
through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default
IP address of the router is
192.168.1.254
and the subnet mask is
255.255.255.0
(i.e. any attached PC
must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253). The
best and easiest way is to configure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router using
DHCP. If you encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface it may also be advisable to
uninstall
any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the
192.168.1.254 IP address of the router. Users should make their own decisions on how to best protect
their network.
Please follow the steps below for your PC’s network environment installation. First of all, please check
your PC’s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network adapter must be
installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system
manuals.
Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through the
router. To configure other types of workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s
documentation.
