Chapter 3 Configuring the Device Manually
3.1 Log in the Router
1. To access the Router’s Web-based Utility, launch a web browser such as Internet Explorer or
Firefox.
2. Enter http://192.168.1.1. Press “Enter”. (You can login to the device’s page through the
following two domains: “mtc.setup.cn” or “PW5002.setup.cn”)
Tips
PW5002 as a Wifi Router device, avoid abnormal of IP conflict in the same LAN, after this
device connected with up level router, it will adjust itself as follows:
1) If this device’s LAN IP and the up level router’s LAN IP at the same network segment, this
device will change its LAN IP automatically. For example: the up level router’s LAN IP is:
192.168.1.1, this device’s LAN IP will become 192.168.10.1.
2) If they are not in the same network segment, this device’s LAN IP will unchanged.
After this device connected with up level router, this device will get an IP from up level through
DHCP but this IP is unknown to the user (now this device has two IP addresses, 192.168.10.1
and the up level router assigned. both of them can login the web page.).
Because of the unknown IP address, you can login the web page through two measures as
below:
1) Launch a web browser inter “mtc.setup.cn”.
2) Launch a web browser inter “PW5002.setup.cn”.
3. The system will automatically display the login page, please enter the correct password. Click
the “sign in” button or press “Enter” key.
