QUICK INSTALLATION
2 quiCk installation
This Quick Installation section can be used to begin router operation as
quickly as possible, requiring only minimal information in order to use
the router simply as an Internet access device. (A separate printed
Quick Install Guide — presenting the basic hardware conguration and
the Initial Setup below — is packaged with the Wireless G 4-Port
Router.)
First, set up your network; as shown above in Connecting the Router,
for example. Then congure your LAN PC clients so they can obtain
an IP address automatically. By default, the router’s dynamic Host
Conguration Protocol (DHCP) is activated, meaning that once your
PCs have been congured to obtain an IP address automatically, all
the clients on the network will automatically obtain an IP address, as
well. If needed, refer to Appendix A at the back of this manual for the
Windows 2000, XP and Vista procedures; for other operating systems,
such as Mac and Sun, follow the oS manufacturer’s instructions.
initial setup
As stated above, once you have congured your PCs to obtain an IP
address automatically, the router’s dHCP server will automatically
give your lAN clients an IP address. To see if you have obtained an
IP address, see Appendix B at the back of this manual. NOTE: Make
sure that this Wireless G 4-Port Router’s dHCP server is the only
dHCP server available on your lAN. If there is another dHCP on your
network, then you’ll need to switch one of the dHCP servers off. (To
disable the router’s dHCP server, refer to Section 3: General Setup /
lAN Settings.)
Conrmed that the router has provided an IP address? Then continue
with the steps below!
1. enter the default IP address
192.168.2.1 (the Wireless
G 4-Port Router’s IP
address) into your PC’s
Web browser and press the
enter key.

QUICK INSTALLATION
2.5.1 wep
When you select either a 64-bit or 128-bit WeP key, you need to enter
WeP keys to encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself and
enter it; you can also enter four WeP keys and select one of them as
the default key. Then the router can receive any packets encrypted by
one of the four keys.
key length: Select the WeP key length for encryption: 64-bit or 128 bit. A larger WeP key length will provide a higher level of security,
but the throughput will be lower.
key format: Select ASCII characters (alphanumeric format) or hexa-
decimal digits (in the “A-F,” “a-f” and “0-9” range) to be the WEP key.
For example, ASCII characters: “guest”; hexadecimal digits:
“12345abcde.”
default tx key: Select one of the four keys as the default key to
encrypt your data.
encryption key 1–4: The WeP keys are used to encrypt data
transmitted in the wireless network. Fill in the elds using the
following guidelines.
• 64-bit WEP: Input 10-digit hex values (in the “A-F,” “a-f” and “0-9”
range) or 5-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
17
QUICK INSTALLATION
• 128-bit WEP: Input 26-digit hex values (in the “A-F,” “a-f” and “0-9”
range) or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
Click “OK” to save and activate all the settings. Now you can use the
router as your Internet gateway.
2.5.2 wpa (tkip)
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard that
lets you use a pre-shared key to authenticate wireless stations and
encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP to frequently change
the encryption key, making it difcult for hackers to break through and
thus greatly improving security.
pre-shared key format: Select “Passphrase” (alphanumeric format)
or “Hexadecimal Digits” (in the “A-F,” “a-f” and “0-9” range) for the
pre-shared key. For example, passphrase: “iamguest”; hex digits:
“12345abcde.”
pre-shared key: The pre-shared key is used to authenticate and encrypt
data transmitted in the wireless network. Fill in the elds using the
following guidelines.
• Hex: Input 64-digit hex values (in the “A-F,” “a-f” and “0-9” range)
or at least an 8-character passphrase as the pre-shared keys.
Click “OK” to save and activate all the settings. Now you can use the
router as your Internet gateway.
