the following IP address. And the following default setting of 11N Mini Router should be
noted:
yIPAddress: 192.168.1.10 (as your Print Server for example)
ySubnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Version 1.0.15
15
yDefault Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Note: If you configure your computer’s IPAddress manually, it needs to be on the same network segment.
For example:
zIPAddress: 192.168.1.xxx (xxx can be any number between 2 and 253, but it can’t be
repeated, we use 100 to be the example.)
zSubnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
zGateway: 192.168.1.1 (this is the IP address of 11N Mini Router in Router Mode)
zDNS: 192.168.1.1 (use 11N Mini Router’s IP address or on your own choice)
Note: IP address and Default gateway cannot be the same.
1.5.1 Network Testing
There are two ways to test your Network whether it can work on Internet or not. They are
“Testing with Internet Browser” and “Testing with Dos”.
1.5.2 Testing with Internet Browser
Open an Internet Browser, such as Internet Explore or Netscape. Input a valid web address
you like, for example, http://www.yahoo.com in the web address blank and then press
