• Internet Explorer V5.5 or later
Preparation
Before attempting to configure the Wireless Router, please ensure that:
• Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Wireless Router. The PC and the Wireless Router must be
directly connected (using the Hub ports on the Wireless Router) or on the same LAN segment.
• The Wireless Router must be installed and powered ON.
• If the Wireless Router's default IP Address (192.168.1.254) is already used by another device, the other device
must be turned OFF until the Wireless Router is allocated a new IP Address during configuration.
Using your Web Browser
To establish a connection from your PC to the Wireless Router:
1. After installing the Wireless Router in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is already running, restart it.
2. Start your WEB browser.
3. In
the Address box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of the Wireless Router, as in this example, which uses the
Wireless Router's default IP Address:
HTTP://192.168.1.254
4. When prompted for the User name and Password, enter values as follows:
• User name admin
• Password airlive
If you can't connect
If the Wireless Router does not respond, check the following:
• The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it
is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" com-
mand:
• Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.
• Enter the command:
ping 192.168.1.254
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or
your PC's IP address is not compatible with the Wireless Router's
IP Address. (See next item.)
• If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the
range 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 to be compatible with the Wireless
Router's default IP Address of 192.168.1.254. Also, the Network Mask
must be set to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for de-
tails on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.
• Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
• Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface
can only be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless set-
tings.
3.3 Setup Wizard
The first time you connect to the Wireless Router, the Setup Wizard will run automatically. (The Setup Wizard will also
run if the Wireless Router's default settings are restored.)
1. Step through the Wizard until finished.
• You need to know the type of Internet connection service used by your ISP. Check the data supplied by your
ISP.
• The common connection types are explained in the tables below.
2. On the final screen of the Wizard, run the test and check that an Internet connection can be established.
