Chapter 3. Installation Guide
3.1. System Requirements
Broadband Internet Access Service (Cable / xDSL / Ethernet connection)
One Cable/xDSL Modem that has an RJ-45 connector (not necessary if the WNRT-320GS is
connected directly to the Ethernet.)
PCs with a working Ethernet Adapter and an Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors
PC of subscribers running Windows 98/ME, NT4.0, 2000/XP, Windows Vista / Win 7, MAC OS 9 or
later, Linux, UNIX or other platform compatible with TCP/IP protocols
Above PC installed with WEB Browser
It is recommended to use Internet Explore 7.0 or above to access the WNRT-320GS.
3.2. Typical Application
Please shift the hardware switch on the WNRT-320GS to change the operation mode.
3.2.1. Router Mode
In Router Mode, the NAT (Network Address Translation) function and DHCP server are both enabled in default,
and all wireless clients will obtain a private IP address automatically by the DHCP server of WNRT-320GS and
share the same public IP assigned by 3G mobile base station or local ISP through WAN port of the WNRT-320GS.
The WAN port of WNRT-320GS is supposed to connect with the Cable / xDSL Modem by the Ethernet cable.
Figure 3-1

User’s Manual of WNRT-320GS

3.2.2. AP Mode
In AP Mode, the NAT (Network Address Translation) function and DHCP server are both disabled in default, and
all wireless clients obtain the IP address from some other network device with DHCP server enabled in the same
subnet of WNRT-320GS.Or users can assign a fixed IP address for client device as well in the Control Panel of
Windows. The LAN port of WNRT-320GS is supposed to connect with the Ethernet directly by the Ethernet cable.
Figure 3-2
3.3. Manual Network Setup - TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the WNRT-320GS is 192.168.1.1,and the default Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire in the web UI of the WNRT-320GS. In this
section, we use all the default values for description.
No matter you want to configure the WNRT-320GS via wired or wireless connection, the PC need to
be assigned an IP address first. Before you connect the local PC to the WNRT-320GS via wired or
wireless connection, please configure the IP address for your PC in the following two ways first.
Obtain an IP address automatically
Configure the IP address manually
The following sections will introduce how to install and configure the TCP/IP correctly in Windows 7.
First, make sure your Ethernet Adapter is working, and refer to the Ethernet adapter’s manual if
needed.
3.3.1. Obtain an IP Address Automatically
If you are sure the DHCP server of WNRT-320GS is enabled (the default setting of Router Mode), you
can set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your PC. And then
the WNRT-320GS built-in DHCP server will assign an IP address to the PC automatically.

Figure 3-6
3.3.2. Configure the IP address manually
If the DHCP server of WNRT-320GS is disabled (the default setting of AP Mode), you need to
configure a fixed IP address manually for your computer. The IP address of your PC should be
192.168.1.xxx (the same subnet of the IP address of WNRT-320GS, and "xxx" is any number from 2 to
254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and the Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The default IP address of
WNRT-320GS)
1) Continue the settings from the last figure, select Use the following IP address radio button.
2) If the LAN IP address of the WNRT-320GS is 192.168.1.1, enter IP address 192.168.1.x (x is from
2 to 254), and Subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
3) Enter the LAN IP address of the WNRT-320GS (the default IP is 192.168.1.1) into the Default
gateway field.
4) Select Use the following DNS server addresses radio button. In the Preferred DNS Server field,
you can enter the DNS server IP address provided by your local ISP. Then click OK to save your
settings.
