3.1 Before Configuration
This section describes the configuration required by LAN-attached PCs that communicate with the Router,
either to configure the device, or for network access. These PCs must have an Ethernet interface
installed properly, be connected to the Router either directly or through a hub, and have TCP/IP installed
and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address which must be in the
same subnet of the Router. The default IP address of router is 192.168.1.254 and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. The best and easy way is to configure the PC to get an IP address from the ADSL Router.
Please follow the steps below for PC’s network environment installation. Before taking the first step,
please check your PC’s network components. If your PC connects the ADSL Modem/Router through
Ethernet port, the TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network adapter must be installed. If not, please
refer to MS Windows relative manuals.
Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through
the ADSL Router. To configure other types of workstations, please consult the
manufacturer’s documentation.
