The default IP address of the router is 192.168.0.1 and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all the default values for description.

Connect the local PC to the Ethernet ports of the router and then you can configure the IP address for your PC by the following method: Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to Appendix B: Configuring the PC. Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.

Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection between your PC and the router. The following example is in Windows XP OS.

Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.0.1, and then press Enter.

Figure 3-2 Failure result of Ping command

Please check the connection following these steps:

1.Is the connection between your PC and the router correct?

Note:

The Ethernet LED on the router and LEDs on your PC's adapter should be lit.

2.Is the TCP/IP configuration for your PC correct?

Note:

If the router's IP address is 192.168.0.1, your PC's IP address must be within the range of 192.168.0.2 ~ 192.168.0.254.

3.Is the default LAN IP of the router correct?

Note:

If the LAN IP of the modem connected with your router is 192.168.0.x, the default LAN IP of the router will automatically switch from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 to avoid IP conflict. Therefore, in order to verify the network connection between your PC and the router, you can open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, and then press Enter.
