2.2 Procedure for Hardware Installation

2. Decide where to place your Wireless Broadband Router

You can place your Wireless Broadband Router on a desk or other flat surface, or you can

mount it on a wall. For optimal performance, place your Wireless Broadband Router in the

center of your office (or your home) in a location that is away from any potential source of

interference, such as a metal wall or microwave oven. This location must be close to both

power and network connections.

2. Setup LAN connection

a. Wired LAN connection: connects an Ethernet cable from your computer’s Ethernet port

to one of the LAN ports of this product.

b. Wireless LAN connection: locate this product at a proper position to gain the best

transmit performance.

Figure 2-3 Setup of LAN and WAN connections for this product.

3. Setup WAN connection

Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting this product to your cable/xDSL modem or

Ethernet backbone. Figure 2-3 illustrates the WAN connection.

4. Poweron

By connecting the power cord to the power inlet and turning the power switch on, this

product will automatically enter the self-test phase. When it is in the self-test phase, the

indicator M1 will be lit ON for about 10 seconds, and then M1 will be flashed 3 times to

indicate that the self-test operation has finished. Finally, the M1 indicator will be

continuously flashed once per second to indicate that this product is in normal operation.

Chapter 3 Network Settings and Software Installation

To use this product correctly, you have to properly configure the network settings of your

computers and install the attached setup program onto your MS Windows platform (Windows

95/98/NT/2000/XP).

3.1 Configuration of the Network Settings of Your Computer

The default IP address of this product is 192.168.123.254, and the default subnet mask is

255.255.255.0. These addresses can be changed if required, but the default values are used

in this manual. If the TCP/IP environment of your computer has not yet been configured, you

can refer to Appendix A for information on how to configure it. For example,

1. configure your computer’s IP as 192.168.123.1, subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 and

gateway as 192.168.123.254, or more easier,

2. configure your computer to load TCP/IP setting automatically, that is, via the DHCP

server of this product.

After installing the TCP/IP communication protocol, you can use the ping command to check if

your computer has successfully connected to this product. The following example shows the

ping procedure for the Windows platform. First open up a Command prompt (cmd in 2000/XP,

msdos in 95,98x). Second, execute the ping command

ping 192.168.123.254

If the following messages appear:

Pinging 192.168.123.254 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.168.123.254: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64

Then a communication link between your computer and this product has been successfully

established. Otherwise, if you get the following messages,

Pinging 192.168.123.254 with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.

There must be something wrong in your installation procedure. You have to check the following

items in sequence:

1. Is the Ethernet cable correctly connected between this product and your computer?

Tip: The LAN LED of this product and the link LED of the network card on your computer

must both be lit.

2. Is the TCP/IP environment of your computers properly configured?

Tip: If the IP address of this product is 192.168.123.254, the IP address of your

computer must be 192.168.123.X and default gateway must be 192.168.123.254 where

the X is any number between 1 and 253.
