device through the wireless network. If you need only the
Ethernet to connect your PC, you can skip this part.
Configuration Requirements
To set up wireless network connection, your PC must be
configured with the WLAN adapter that supports the IEEE
802.11 b/g protocol.
If the encryption function is enabled, you need to ensure
that all PCs connecting to the device use the same key as
that of the device.
For the use of WLAN adapter, refer to the WLAN adapter
user guide provided by the manufacturer.
For the encryption configurations, see "Security Setting >
Security Policy".
For SSID parameters configuration, see "Wireless
Settings > Basic Settings > Wireless Network".
Configuring the Wireless Network
Choose Start > Control Panel > Network
Connections > Wireless Network Connection.
Click Show Wireless Networks to display the
wireless network connection list.
Select the network connection that the SSID is the
same as that of the device, and then click Connect.

Wireless Network Connection dialog box is
displayed and requires the network key and
confirmation. The value you entered must be the
same as the WPA Pre-Shared Key or Network Key
of the device.

Network Settings
Click Network Settings to go to LAN Interface
configuration page; such as LAN IP and DHCP Server.
All the settings will also apply o wireless LAN interface.
IP Address: The default IP address of the device is
192.168.1.1.
Subnet Mask: The combination of the subnet mask and
IP address enables the flexible sub netting. By default,
the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
DHCP Server: It is used to assign IP addresses
dynamically. If the DHCP server is Enabled, it can
automatically assign IP addresses for PCs. It is
recommended to select Enabled for the DHCP server.
DHCP Lease Time: The DHCP server automatically
assigns an IP address to each device connected to the
network. When the leased time expires, the DHCP
server checks whether the device is connected to the
network. If the device is disconnected from the network,
the server assigns the IP address to another device.
Thus, the IP address is not wasted.
IP Pool Range: It is used to define the IP address range
that the host can use during the IP address assignment.
For example, in the network segment 192.168.1.0/24,
the default IP address of the device is 192.168.1.1. The
host IP address can range from 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.254. The minimum range is a single IP
address.
The Start IP Address must be smaller than or
equal to the End IP Address.
If the DHCP Server is Enabled, the
configurations of Start IP Address, End IP
address, and DHCP Lease Time are valid;
otherwise, you cannot configure them.
IP Address Reservation
Click Edit Address Reservation to configure IP
address for specific LAN client by the MAC address.
Please input the MAC address of the LAN client PC, and
then specify the IP address that will be assigned to the client;
click Apply after checking the Enable box.
