Power, CPU, LAN, WLAN and WAN port LEDs of the WLAN Router will blinks for one
second indicating a normal status.
2. When the WAN Port is connected to the ADSL/Cable modem, the WAN LED will light up.
3. When the LAN Port is connected to the computer system, the LAN LED will light up.
3.3 Set up the Computer
The default IP address of the Router is 192.168.1.1, the default Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0. Both of these parameters can be changed as you want. In this guide, we
will use the default values for description.
Connect the local PC to the LAN port on the Router. There are then two ways to configure
the IP address for your PC.
Configure the IP address manually
1. Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.
2. Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx (“xxx” range from 2
to 254). The Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0 and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (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.
2. Power off the Router and PC. Then turn on the Router and restart the PC. 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. Open a command prompt, and type in ping
192.168.1.1, then press Enter.

If the result displayed is similar to that shown in above figure, it means that the connection
between your PC and the Router has been established.
If the result displayed is similar to that shown in the above figure, it means that your PC has
not connected to the Routersuccessfully. Please check it following below steps:
1. Is the connection between your PC and the Router correct?
If correct, the LAN port on the Router and LED on your PC’s adapter should be lit.
2. Is the TCP/IP configuration for your PC correct?
Since 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, the Gateway must be 192.168.1.1.

This page is used to configure the parameters for the WAN port of your Access Point. Since
we have discussed this setting on Setup Wizard, here we introduce how to configure MTU.
41
SRX-WR150WH

MTU: It means Max Transmit Unit for packet. When using slow links, large packets can
cause some delays thereby increasing lag and latency. The default value is 1500.
Auto Reconnection: this function is enabled by default.
5.2.2 LAN Interface
Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design
of network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP.
This page allows you to configure the parameters for LAN which connects to the LAN port
of your Access Point.
IP Address: This is the IP addresses to be represented by the LAN (including WLAN)
interface that is connected to the internal network. This IP will be used for the routing of the
internal network (it will be the Gateway IP for all the devices connected on the internal
network).
Subnet Mask: This is used to define the device IP classification for the chosen IP address
range. 255.255.255.0 is a typical netmask value for Class C networks which support IP
address range from 192.0.0.x to 223.255.255.x. Class C network netmask uses 24 bits to
identify the network and 8 bits to identify the host.
Domain Name: this is optional, by default, it is SERIOUX.
DNS Relay: you can choose to enable or disable this function. By default, it is Enable
selected.
LAN SPEED: choose the LAN data rate. This router supports 10M/100M/AUTO.
5.2.3 DHCP Server
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a local area network protocol. If you
choose this mode, you will get a dynamic IP address from your ISP automatically. DHCP
server means that all the computers connected to this router will get the IP address
dynamically.
51
SRX-WR150WH

Starting IP Address: displays the start IP Address of the range that will be assigned to
each computer connected with the router.
Ending IP Address: displays the ending IP Address of the range that will be assigned to
each computer connected with the router.
Lease Time: the IP addresses given out by the DHCP server will only be valid for the
duration specified by the lease time. Increasing the time ensure client operation without
interrupt, but could introduce potential conflicts. Lowering the lease time will avoid potential
address conflicts, but might cause more slight interruptions to the client while it will acquire
new IP addresses from the DHCP server. The time is expressed in seconds.
Static DHCP function allows you reserve IP addresses, and assign the same IP address to
the network device with the specified MAC address any time it requests an IP address. This
is almost the same as when a device has a static IP address except that the device must
still request an IP address from the DHCP server. You can enable or disable this function.
Host Name: this represents the name of your IP address.
IP Address: displays the IPAddress that you want to assign to network device.
MAC Address: the MAC Address of the computer that reserves the IP address.
DHCP Client: it displays the detailed computer information in the LAN.
The following table shows information about Static/Dynamic DHCP Clients.
