Chapter 4. Quick Installation Guide

This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your Wi-Fi ONU.

A computer with wired Ethernet connection to the Wi-Fi ONU is required for the first-time

configuration.

4.1 Manual Network Setup - TCP/IP Configuration

The default IP address of the Wi-Fi ONU is

192.168.1.1

and the default Subnet Mask is

255.255.255.0

. These

values can be changed as you desire in the web UI of the Wi-Fi ONU. In this section, we use all the default
values for description.

Whether the Wi-Fi ONU is configured via wired or wireless connection, the PC needs to be assigned an IP

configure the IP address for your PC in the following two ways first.

In the following sections, we’ll introduce how to install and configure the TCP/IP correctly in Windows 7. And the
