1 Fast Internet Access
1.1 Configuration Environment Requirements
1.1.1 PC
Browser: Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 9.0, 10.0, and 11.0, and some
Chromium/Internet Explorer kernel-based browsers (such as 360 Extreme Explorer)
are supported. Exceptions such as garble or format error may occur if an unsupported
browser is used.
Resolution: 1024 x 768 or a higher resolution is recommended. If other resolutions are
used, the page fonts and formats may not be aligned, the GUI is less artistic, or other
exceptions may occur.
1.2 Default Configuration
Table 1-1 Default Web Configuration
Item
Default
IP address
10.44.77.254
Username/Password
A username is not required when you log
in for the first time. The default password is
admin.
1.3 Login to Eweb
1.3.1 Connecting to the Access Point
You can open the management page and complete Internet access configuration only
after connecting a client to the access point in either of the following ways:

2
Wired Connection
Connect a local area network (LAN) port of the access point to the network port of the PC,
and set the IP address of the PC. See Configuring the IP Address of the Management
Client.
Wireless Connection
On a mobile phone or laptop, search for wireless network @Ruijie-SXXXX (XXXX is the last
four digits of the MAC address of each device). In this mode, you do not need to set the
IP address of the management Client, and you can skip the operation in Configuring the
IP Address of the Management Client.
1.3.2 Configuring the IP Address of the Management Client
Configure an IP address for the management client in the same network segment as the
default IP address of the device (The default device IP address is 10.44.77.254, and the
subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.) so that the management client can access the device. For
example, set the IP address of the management client to 10.44.77.100.
Caution
Make sure that the client can access the Eweb system as long as it can ping the
access point.
The IP address of the management client cannot be set to 10.44.77.253, because this
IP address is reserved by the device. If the management client uses this IP address, it
cannot access the device.
1.3.3 Logging in to the Web Page
(1) Enter the IP address (10.44.77.254 by default) of the access point in the address bar of
the browser to open the login page.
Note
If the static IP address of the device is changed, or the device obtains a new dynamic IP
address, the new IP address can be used to access the web management system of the
device as long as the management client and the device are in the same network
segment of a LAN.

3
(2) On the web page, enter the password and click Log In to enter the web management
system.
You can use the default password admin to log in to the device for the first time. For
security purposes, you are advised to change the default password as soon as
possible after logging in, and to regularly update your password thereafter.
If you forget the IP address or password, hold down the Reset button on the device
panel for more than 5 seconds when the device is connected to the power supply to
restore factory settings. After restoration, you can use the default IP address and
password to log in.
Caution
Restoring factory settings will delete the existing configuration and you are required to
configure the device again at your next login. Therefore, exercise caution when
performing this operation.
1.4 Work Mode
The device can work in the router mode, AP mode or wireless repeater mode. The
displayed system menu page and function ranges vary with the work mode. The RAP
works in the AP mode by default. If you want to switch the work mode, see Switching
Work Mode.

4
1.4.1 AP Mode
The device performs L2 forwarding and does not support the DHCP address pool
function. In AP mode, the device often networks with devices supporting the routing
function. IP addresses of downlink wireless clients are assigned and managed by the
uplink device (supporting the DHCP address pool) of the AP in a unified manner, and the
AP only transparently transmits data.
1.4.2 Router Mode
The device supports NAT routing and forwarding. The addresses of wireless clients can
be assigned by the AP and wireless network data is routed and forwarded by the AP. NAT
is supported in this mode. When an AP works in the router mode, it supports device
networking, network-wide configuration, and AP-specific radio functions.
There are three Internet types available: PPPoE, DHCP mode and static IP address mode.
You can connect the device to an Ethernet cable or an upstream device.
Caution
After switching to the router mode, the device’s LAN IP address will change to
192.168.120.1. Please obtain an IP address automatically for your management client
and enter 10.44.77.254 into the address bar of the browser to log in to Eweb again.
1.4.3 Wireless Repeater Mode
The device does not support the routing and DHCP server functions in the wireless
repeater mode. IP addresses of the clients are assigned and managed by the primary
router. On an available network, the device can be connected to the primary router
through wireless connection to expand the Wi-Fi coverage and increase the number of
LAN ports and wireless access devices.
1.5 Configuration Wizard (Router Mode)
Upon first login, you can perform quick configuration procedures to configure the
Internet type, Wi-Fi network and management password.

5
1.5.1 Getting Started
(1) Connect the device to a power supply and connect the port of the device to an
upstream device with an Ethernet cable. Or you can connect an Ethernet cable to the
device.
(2) Configure the Internet connection type according to requirements of the local Internet
Service Provider (ISP). Otherwise, the Internet access may fail due to improper
configuration. You are advised to contact your local ISP to confirm the Internet
connection type:
○Figure out whether the Internet connection type is PPPoE, DHCP mode, or static IP
address mode.
○In the PPPoE mode, a username, a password, and possibly a service name are
needed.
○In the static IP address mode, an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and a DNS
server need to be configured.
(3) The device works in the AP mode by default. If you want to switch the work mode to
the router mode, perform the configuration on the work mode setting page. See
Switching Work Mode for more details.

6
1.5.2 Configuration Steps
1. Add a Device to Network
You can manage and configure all devices in the network in batches by default. Please
verify the device count and network status before configuration.
Note
New devices will join in a network automatically after being powered on. You only need
to verify the device count.
If a new device is detected not in the network, click Add to My Network and enter its
management password to add the device manually.

7
2. Creating a Network Project
Click Start Setup to configure the Internet connection type, Wi-Fi network and
management password.
(1) Network Name: Identify the network where the device is located.
(2) Internet: Configure the Internet connection type according to requirements of the
local Internet Service Provider (ISP).
○DHCP: The access point detects whether it can obtain an IP address via DHCP by
default. If the access point connects to the Internet successfully, you can click Next
without entering an account.
○PPPoE: Click PPPoE, and enter the username, password, and service name. Click
Next.
○Static IP: Enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server, and click
Next.
(3) SSID and Wi-Fi Password: The device has no Wi-Fi password by default, indicating that
the Wi-Fi network is an open network. You are advised to configure a complex
password to enhance the network security.
