This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your TL-WR802N 300Mbps Wireless N Nano Router using Quick Setup Wizard within minutes.
The default IP addresses of the TL-WR802N have two: 192.168.0.254 for AP mode, Repeater mode and Client mode, and 192.168.0.1 for Standard wireless Router mode and WISP Client Router mode. 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. Here we take “192.168.0.254” as an example.
Connect the local PC to the LAN port of the Router. And then you can configure the IP address for your PC as the following steps:
1)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”.
2)Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
Then connect to the Router through wireless connection following the steps below:
1)Click the icon at the bottom of your desktop. Click refresh button, and then select the default SSID of the Router. Click Connect.

The Router supports five popular ways Dynamic IP, Static IP, PPPoE/Russian PPPoE, L2TP/Russian L2TP and PPTP/Russian PPTP to connect to the Internet. To make sure the connection type your ISP provides, please refer to the ISP. Make sure the cable is securely plugged into the WAN port before detection.
Auto Detect - If you don't know the connection type your ISP provides, use this option to allow the Quick Setup to search your Internet connection for servers and protocols and determine your ISP configuration.
Dynamic IP - Your ISP uses a DHCP service to assign your Router an IP address for connecting to the Internet. When the Router connects to a DHCP server, or the ISP supplies you with DHCP connection, please choose this type. If you choose this type of connection, you can click Next and proceed to Figure 3-12.
Figure 3-7 Quick Setup - Static IP
Static IP - This type of connection uses a permanent, fixed (static) IP address that your ISP assigned. In this type, you should fill in the IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and DNS IP address manually, which are specified by your ISP. Then click Next and proceed to Figure 3-12.
