Connecting a computer to your Home Gateway
There are two ways to connect a computer to your home gateway, either with
the
Ethernet cable
or by using
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network)
.
Other Ethernet devices or WLAN enabled clients may use same methods to
connect.
Note:
Some computers can have problems when connecting both Ethernet and
WLAN simultaneously.

LAN ports marked A – D.

Connecting a computer by using WLAN (Wireless LAN)
WPS method
The Tilgin home gateway supports the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) feature to
make it easy to set up a secure wireless home network.
Two WPS methods are supported,
PIN
and Push Button Connect (
PBC
).
If your wireless device/adapter supplier does not support WPS setup, the WLAN
connection with the home gateway can be setup manually.
WPS-PIN method
1.
Enable the WLAN by pressing the ECO mode button (#1) once. The
WLAN LED on the front panel will turn green when enabled.
2.
Enter the PIN code, provided by your wireless device/adapter
supplier, in the local Web GUI of the home gateway.
WPS-PBC method
1.
Enable the WLAN by pressing the ECO mode button (#1) once. The
WLAN LED on the front panel will turn green when enabled.
2.
Press the ECO mode button (#1) again for 5-10 seconds to enable
the PBC function on the home gateway.
3.
Press the PBC button on your wireless device/adaptor.
Manual method
The WLAN settings are configured manually according to operator specific
WLAN settings or by using the default WLAN settings of the home gateway.
Note
: Your wireless device/adaptor usually has a connection guide or wizard
that will guide you through configuration and connecting to the home gateway.
You should follow these instructions and take into account any WLAN security
level settings provided by your operator.
If the instructions provided with the WLAN client fail, and/or your operator does
not recommend specific WLAN settings, use the default WLAN port settings
described in chapter
4.4.2.1 Configuring WLAN Client for computer devices
