2.2 Hardware Installation
1. Locate an optimum location for the WNRT-625G. The best place for your WNRT-625G is usually
at the center of your wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile stations.
2. Adjust the antennas of WNRT-625G. Try to adjust them to a position that can best cover your
wireless network. The antenna’s position will enhance the receiving sensitivity.
3. There are two way connecting to Internet, One is via 3G USB port, and another is from WAN
port.
8

3-1. Connect your 3G/3.5G USB modem to the USB port located in front panel of WNRT-625G.
NOTE: Please also check with your local dealer or PLANET Web site for supported 3G/3.5G USB adapter
3-2. Connect ADSL/Cable Modem to WAN port of WNRT-625G via RJ-45 Ethernet cable.
9

4. Connect all of your network devices to LAN port of WNRT-625G. Connect all your computers,
network devices (network-enabled consumer devices other than computers, like game console, or
switch / hub).Connect one of the LAN ports on WNRT-625G to your LAN switch/hub or a computer
with a RJ-45 cable.
5. Plug in power adapter and connect to power source. After power on, WNRT-625G will start to
operate.
6. Please check all LEDs on the front panel. ‘PWR’ LED should be steadily on. WAN and LAN LEDs
should be on if the computer / network device connected to the respective port of the router is powered
on and correctly connected. If PWD LED is not on, or any LED you expected is not on, please recheck
the cabling, or jump to ‘Troubleshooting’ for possible reasons and solution.
Note:
1. ONLY use the power adapter supplied with the WNRT-625G. Otherwise, the product may be
damaged.
2. If you want to reset WNRT-625G to default settings, press and hold the RST(reset) button over
30 seconds and release. And then wait for WNRT-625G restart.

adapter.
4. If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router.
Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters.
Assign a static IP address
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow
the steps below:
1. - Windows Vista® - Click on Start > Control .Panel > Network .and .Internet
