4. Conguration of GN-BR30N-RH
This is only a brief operator’s manual to help you get started. A complete
operator’s manual in English is found on the supplied CD.
1. Type in the router’s IP number (192.168.1.254) in the address eld of your web
browser (e.g. Internet Explorer) and press ENTER to connect to the wireless
router.
Note! If you are using an xDSL modem with a built-in router it can give GN-
BR30N-RH a different IP number (e.g. 192.168.2.254).
2. When the login page appears you enter username and password. Log in
using the user name admin and the password admin. This can eventually be
changed in the router’s menu.
3. Choose “Smart Setup” for automatic conguration (if you have an Internet
connection via the WAN port) or “Setup Wizard” for manual conguration (if
you create a network without Internet connection).

ENGLISH
4.1 Manual conguration
Setup Wizard
Check with your Internet distributor regarding your type of connection to the Inter-
net. Different Internet distributors use different connection types for connecting to
the Internet. The most common connection types are:
- PPPoE
Automatically assignte IP address via PPPoE. You need to give the username
and password you got from your Internet distributor.
- Dynamic
Automatically assigned IP address from a DHCP server. Nu user information
is needed.
- Static (constant IP-address)
You need to give the information you received from your Internet distributor.
1. Click on Network Conguration and then WAN Conguration.
2. Click on Edit on the top row.


ENGLISH
3. Choose the type of connection you have according to the information from your
Internet distributor and click on Next.
4. If gateway and DNS addresses are changed this is given in the following steps.
Type in possible information and then click on Finish.

ENGLISH
5. Press OK to conrm to save the settings.
Note!
- Remember to turn off rewalls and anti virus programs with rewalls.
- Some Internet distributors require the modem to be unplugged for 30-60
minutes after the settings in the router have been made, otherwise the
connection does not work.

ENGLISH
. Troubleshooting
Which information should be given in the router’s settings?
Carefully read the information given by your Internet distributor.
I am having trouble connecting to the router.
Possible cause:
- The product is not connected to the AC/DC adaptor.
- No network connection.
- The computer you are using does not have a valid IP address.
- Other rewalls or anti-virus programs with rewalls are blocking the
connection.
Possible solution:
- Check that the lamp POWER is lit, if not check the AC/DC adaptor and
wall socket.
- Check that you have a physical or wireless connection between the PC and
router; one or several LAN lights shall be lit. The LED on the network card also
indicates if the connection works.
- The tool ipcong which is used in the command prompt shows your settings.
Type ipcong and press ENTER, the computer’s network settings e.g. IP
address and net mask will be shown.
- Standard-gateway is the IP address to the router. The three rst groups of the
IP address (192.168.1.x) shall be the same for the router and other connected
devices. The last group (x) is a serial number within the same net and should
be different on all devices.
- Check that no software rewall is installed. Activate it or congure it for the
internal network. This router has a built-in rewall.

12
ENGLISH
I cannot connect to other devices on the network.
Possible cause:
- The computers’ IP addresses are incorrectly set.
- The network cables are incorrectly connected.
- The network settings in Windows are wrong.
Possible solution:
- Every computer should have a unique IP address, check e.g. with the
command ipcong. See the chapter Check conguration about how you
check and update the conguration.
- Normally should Obtain an IP address automatically be marked (if you want to
use the router’s DHCP function). Note! A change can require a restart to work.
I can connect to the router but not to the Internet connection.
Possible cause:
- The modem or ADSL unit does not work.
- Cable error between the WAN port on the router and the modem or ADSL unit.
- Wrong type of connection is used in Setup (PPPoE, Dynamic or Static).
- Possible username and password to the Internet distributor is wrong.
Possible solution:
- Check function and connections.
- Check the settings for your type of connection.
- Write the correct username and password. Differentiate between CAPITAL
LETTERS and lower-case letters.
- Always read through instructions and rules from your Internet distributor, there
may be rules regarding sharing the same connection.
