Chapter 3 Configuration and Management
This chapter describes how to configure and manage the router.
3.1 Configuration Connection
Before configuration, you should connect the router and your configuration PC with the
supplied network cable. Plug the cable’s one end into the Local Network port of the router, and
another end into your configure PC’s Ethernet port. The connection diagram is as following:
Please modify the IP address of PC as the same network segment address of the router, for
instance, 192.168.1.9. Modify the mask code of PC as 255.255.255.0 and set the default gateway
of PC as the router’s IP address (192.168.1.1).
3.2 Access the Configuration Web Page
The chapter is to present main functions of each page. Users visit page tool via web browser
after connect users' PC to the Router. There are eleven main pages: Setting, Wireless, Service,
