The C300BRS4 will activate WPA security on your wireless network and accepts the wireless
connection of your Wireless Client with the entered Pin Code.
The C300BRS4 will keep the WPS authentication active for 120 seconds. During this process, the WPS
LED will blink. If there is no connection in these 120 seconds, the LED will turn off and the WPS
authentication process is stopped.
Click “
Continue
” to return to the WPS Wizard screen.
Note:
If the WPS feature is not used earlier, the wireless network will still be unencrypted.
If the authentication of the Wireless Client is succeeded, the Wizard will show “
WPS - Adding
Wireless Device Success
”. The WPS LED will burn steady blue for 5 minutes. After these 5 minutes,
the LED will turn off.
Click “
Continue
” to return to the Wireless Configuration page.
Your Wireless Client is now connected to the C300BRS4 and your network is secured with WPA
Encryption.

HOME - WAN
To access this window click on the
WAN
button in the left menu of the web manager.
You can configure the C300BRS4 as Router, or as Switch/Accesspoint.
When you select the “
Router
” option, you can configure a connection for your provider which is
described further in this manual.
When you select the “
Bridge
” function, the C300BRS4 will disable all router functions and will
work as a 5 ports switch with accesspoint. This can be useful if you want to use the C300BSRS4
just as a switch and accesspoint, instead of all the router functions.
WAN – Bridge or Router Mode
Note:
If you select the “
Bridge
” option, the DHCP Server also will be disabled. You cannot
access the configuration pages of the C300BRS4 anymore on
192.168.0.1
, but you need to
check the DHCP Server in your network which IP Address is assigned to the C300BRS4.

Static IP Address
When the Router is configured to use Static IP Address assignment for the WAN connection, you
must manually assign a global IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP Address used for the WAN
connection. Follow the instruction below to configure the Router to use Static IP Address assignment
for the WAN connection.
To configure a Static IP Address connection, perform the steps listed below. Some of the settings do
not need to be changed the first time the device is set up, but can be changed later if you choose.
See the table below for a description of all the settings available in this window.
WAN Settings window for Static IP Address
To configure a Static IP type connection for the WAN, follow these steps:
1.
Click the
Static IP
radio button at the top of the window.
2.
Enter an
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
ISP
Gateway Address
,
Primary DNS Address
, and (if
available)
Secondary DNS
Address
as instructed by your ISP. These are the global IP settings
for the WAN interface. This is the “visible” IP address of your account. Your ISP should have
provided these IP settings to you.
3.
Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter when you first
access their network. This can prevent the Router (which has a different MAC address) from
being allowed access to the ISPs network (and the Internet). To clone the MAC address of your
computer’s Ethernet adapter, press the “
Clone MAC Address
” button or enter the MAC
Address manually.

Leave the
MTU
value at the default setting (default =
1500
) unless you have specific reasons
to change this (see table below).
5.
When you are satisfied that all the WAN settings are configured correctly, click on the
Apply
button.
6.
The new settings must be saved and the Router must be restarted for the settings to go into
effect. To save and reboot the Router, click on the
Tools
button in the top menu and select
the
System
button in the left menu. In the
System Management
window, click the
Save
button under Save Settings to Local Hard Drive and then click the
Reboot
button to reboot the
C300BRS4.
7.
The Router will save the new settings and restart. Upon restarting the Router will
automatically establish the WAN connection.
Additional settings for Static IP Address connections:
Static IP Parameters
Description
IP Address
This is the permanent global IP address for your account. This is the
address that is visible outside your private network. Get this from your
ISP.
Subnet Mask
This is the Subnet mask for the WAN interface. Get this from your ISP.
ISP Gateway Address
This is the IP address of your ISP’s Gateway router. It provides the
connection to the Router for IP routed traffic that is outside your ISP’s
network. That is, this will be the primary connection from the Router
to most of the Internet. Get this IP address from your ISP.
MAC Address
To use the Clone MAC Address feature, enter a MAC address in this
field and then click the
Clone MAC Address
button.
Primary DNS Address
This is the IP address of the first choice for Domain Name Service
(DNS) used to match the named URL web address used by most
browsers with the actual global IP address used for a web server.
Usually this will be a server owned by the ISP. Get this IP address from
your ISP.
Secondary DNS Address
This is the second choice for a DNS server. Get this IP address from
your ISP.
MTU
The Maximum Transmission Unit size may be changed if you want to
optimize efficiency for uploading data through the WAN interface. The
default setting (
1500
bytes) should be suitable for most users. Some
user may want to adjust the setting to optimize performance for
wireless traffic or when low latency is desired (such as with Internet
gaming). It is highly recommended that the user research how
adjusting the MTU may affect network traffic for better or worse.

Dynamic IP Address
A Dynamic IP Address connection configures the Router to automatically obtain its global IP address
from a DHCP server on the ISP’s network. The service provider assigns a global IP address from a
pool of addresses available to the service provider. Typically the IP address assigned has a long
lease time, so it will likely be the same address each time the Router requests an IP address.
To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection, perform the steps listed below. Some of the settings
do not need to be changed the first time the device is set up, but can be changed later if you
choose. See the table below for a description of all the settings available in this window.
WAN Settings window for Dynamic IP Address
To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection for the WAN, follow these steps:

Fill in the
Primary DNS Address
. This information should be available from your ISP.
4.
Fill in the
Secondary DNS Address
(if available from your ISP).
