Chapter 3. Quick Installation Guide
This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your 4G Wireless-N Router
IB-W4GX150N using Quick Setup Wizard within minutes.
3.1 TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the 4G Wireless-N Router IB-W4GX150N is 192.168.1.1. And the
default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire. In this
guide, we use all the default values for description.
Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the Router. And then you can configure the IP address
for your PC in the following two ways.
Configure the IP address manually
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this,
please refer to Appendix B: "Configuring the PC."
2) Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is any
number from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1
(The Router's default IP address)
Obtain an IP address automatically
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your
PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to Appendix B:
"Configuring the PC."
2) Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection
between your PC and the Router. The following example is in Windows 2000 OS.
Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, and then press Enter.
If the result displayed is similar to Figure 3-1, it means the connection between your PC
and the Router has been established well.

Figure 3-1 Success result of Ping command
If the result displayed is similar to Figure 3-2,it means the connection between your PC
and the Router has failed.
Figure 3-2 Failure result of Ping command
Please check the connection following these steps:
1. Is the connection between your PC and the Router correct?
Note:
The 1/2/3/4 LEDs of LAN ports which you link to on the Router and LEDs on your PC's adapter
should be lit.

iB-W4GX150N

2. Is the TCP/IP configuration for your PC correct?
Note:
If the Router's IP address is 192.168.1.1, your PC's IP address must be within the range of
192.168.1.2 ~ 192.168.1.254.
3.2 Quick Installation Guide
With a Web-based (Internet Explorer or Firefox) utility, it is easy to configure and manage the
4G Wireless-N Router, IB-W4GX150N. The Web-based utility can be used on any Windows,
Macintosh or UNIX OS with a Web browser.
1. To access the configuration utility, open a web-browser and type in the default address
http://192.168.1.1 in the address field of the browser.

3. Click Next, and then Internet Access page will appear, shown in Figure 3-6. Select a
desired Internet access mode and then click Next. The configuration for each mode is
similar. Here we take 3G Preferred mode for example.
Figure 3-6 Choose Internet Access Mode
3G/4G Connection with Broadband Failover
In this mode, the router will try 3G access first. If 3G access fails and WAN access is valid,
or if no 3G USB modem is inserted, the router would switch to WAN access. Once the
router succeeds to connect to the 3G network, the router would stop the WAN connection
and switch back to 3G access immediately.
3G/4G Connection
In this mode, the router will try 3G access only. WAN access is disabled.
Broadband Connection with 3G/4G Failover
In this mode, the router will try WAN access first. If the WAN access fails, and 3G access is
valid, the router would switch to 3G access. Once the router succeeds to connect to the
WAN network, the router would stop the 3G connection and switch back to WAN access
immediately.
