Choosing the Best Location for Wireless Operation
Many environmental factors may affect the effective wireless function of the DSL Router. If this is the first time that you set up a wireless network device, read the
following information:
The access point can be placed on a shelf or desktop, ideally you should be able to see the LED indicators in the front, as you may need to view them for
troubleshooting.
Designed to go up to 100 meters indoors and up to 300 meters outdoors, wireless LAN lets you access your network from anywhere you want. However, the numbers
of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through limit signal range. Typical ranges vary depending on types of materials and background
RF noise in your home or business.

Connecting the Router
(1)
Connect the
DSL
port of the router and the Modem port of the splitter
with a telephone cable; connect the phone to the phone port of the

the splitter.
The spliiter has three ports:
LINE
: Connect to a wall phone jack (RJ-11 jack)
Modem
: Connect to the Line interface of the router
PHONE
: Connect to a telephone set
(2)
Connect the
LAN
port of the router to the network interface card (NIC) of
the PC through an Ethernet cable (MDI/MDIX).
(3)

About the Web Configuration
The first time you setup the Router. It is recommended that you configure the WAN connection using a single computer, to ensure that both the computer and the
Router are not connected to the LAN. Once the WAN connection operates properly, you may continue to make changes to Router configuration, including IP settings
and DHCP setup. This chapter is concerned with using your computer to configure the WAN connection. The following chapter describes the various menus used to
configure and monitor the Router, including how to change IP settings and DHCP server setup.

Preparation Before Login
Before accessing the Routerre the communication between PC and Router is normal. Check the communication as follows.
Configure the IP address of the PC as 192.168.1.X (2~254), net mask as
255.255.255.0, gateway address as 192.168.1.1 (for customized version,
configure them according to the actual version).
Enter
arp -a
in the DOS window to check whether the PC can read the MAC
address of the Router.
Ping the MAINTENANCE IP address (192.168.1.1 by default) of the Router.
If the PC can read the MAC address of the Router and can ping through the
MAINTENANCE IP address of the Router, that means the communication of
the PC and the Router is normal.
Note:
When you manage the Router through Web, you must keep the Router
