1.6 Installation Instruction

1) Power off 802.11n AP Router and DSL/Cable modem.

2) Connect computer to the LAN port on the Wireless Router with Ethernet cable.

3) Connect the DSL or Cable modem to the WAN port on the Wireless Router with Ethernet cable.

4) Power on DSL or Cabl e modem first, then connect power adapter to the power jack on the rear panel of Wireless Router and plug the power cable into an outlet.

5) Check LEDs.

a) Once power on Wireless Router, Power LED should be on. b) L AN LED should be on for each active LAN connection. c) The WAN LED should be on when the DSL or cable modem is

connected.

Warning: Only use the power adapter is pro vided from this pac kage, use other

power adapter may cause hardware damage

2. PC Configuration

To communicate and configure 802.11n AP router, the PC on your LAN must

install TCP/IP protocol. Make sure the TCP/IP protocol of the PC is configured for Obtain IP address from DHCP and is connected to LAN (Ethernet) port of the AP router. In doing so, the PC obtains an IP address of 192.168.1.1 from

802.11n AP router.

The 802.11n AP router assumes an IP address of 192.168.1.1 without network connectivity. This IP address is used for communicating with the 802.11n AP router via the web UI or Telnet, with the PC connected to the LAN port.

The 802.11n AP router assumes a DHCP IP address on the WAN side if connected to the network. In this case user can communicate with the same IP address 192.168.1.1 with PC connected to the LAN port. PC in the network can communicate with the DHCP IP address allocated to 802.11n router.
