3.2 Wi-Fi Connection
To nd and select the Wi-Fi network:
1. Make sure that the router or node is receiving power (its Power LED is lit).
2. On your Wi-Fi-enabled computer or mobile device, nd and select the Wi-Fi
network. The Wi-Fi network name is on the router label. The Wi-Fi network
3. Join the Wi-Fi network and enter the Wi-Fi password. The password is on the
router label. Your Wi-Fi-enabled computer or mobile device connects to the
Wi-Fi network.
3.3 Use a Web Browser to Access the Router
When you connect to the network (either with Wi-Fi or with an Ethernet cable),
you can use a web browser to access the router to view or change its settings.
The rst time you access the router, a Quick start guide displays.
1. Access your router with a Web Browser
Launch a web browser to access the router by 192.168.8.1，
When Log-in widow opens, enter password:1235678.
When Home page displays, select Networking Setting.Then you can begin to
setup your network.
2. Join the Wi-Fi network and enter the Wi-Fi password. The password is on the
router label. Your Wi-Fi-enabled computer or mobile device connects to the
Wi-Fi network.
4.Specify Your Internet Settings
4.1 Quick installation Guide
The quickest way to setup the router to use your Internet connection is to follow
the Quick installation Guide when you rst access the router with a web browser.
Before you start the setup process, get your ISP information and make sure that
the computers and devices in the network use the settings described here.
When your Internet service starts, your Internet service provider (ISP) typically
gives you all the information needed to connect to the Internet.
For DSL service, you might need the following information to set up your router:
The ISP conguration information provide for your DSL account
Fixed or static IP address settings (special deployment by ISP; this setting is rare)
If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to provide it. Then Click save.

and setting your Wi-Fi name and password, Click save.
If you connect your internet by wired cable , you can back to Mesh interface and
check Status , if wan port have parameter，you can surf the internet. Or if you
connect your internet by Wi-Fi, you can reconnect the new SSID and try to surf
the internet directly.
4.2 Use the Network setting
Make sure that the network settings of the computer are correct. Wired and
wireless connected computers must use network (IP) addresses on the same
network as the router. The simplest way to do this is to congure each computer
to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP.
To use the Network setting:
1. Launch a web browser from a
computer or mobile device that

5.1 Wi-Fi settings
Make sure that the Wi-Fi setting in the Wi-Fi-enabled computer or mobile device

6.1 Access DMZ Setting
The default DMZ server feature is helpful when you are using some online games
and videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with Network Address
Translation (NAT). The router is programmed to recognize some of these
applications and to work correctly with them, but other applications might not
function well. In some cases, one local computer can run the application correctly
if the IP address for that computer is entered as the default DMZ server.
Access the Home page > Select Firewall > Select DMZ.
Enable the Default DMZ Server, then type the IP address.

6.5 Setup QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) allows you to prioritize the online activities that are most
important to users on your network, You can set a high-priority time during
which the bandwidth for a device is guaranteed. For example, if you are using
your laptop for an important video conference and want to avoid a dropped call,
you can set your laptop as high-priority during the time of your video conference.
Access the Home page > Select Firewall > Select QoS, then the Port

7. Manage Your Network
7.1 LAN TCP/IP Settings
The router is precongured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act
as a DHCP server. The router’s default LAN IP conguration is as follows:
LAN IP address. 192.168.8.1
Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private
networks and are suitable for most applications. If your network requires a
dierent IP addressing scheme, you can change these settings. You might want
to change these settings if you need a specic IP subnet that one or more devices
on the network uses, or if you use competing subnets with the same IP scheme.
Change the LAN Interface settings:
Access the Home page > Select Management > Select LAN interface setup
In the IP Address eld, type the IP address (default setting is 192.168.8.1)
In the IP Subnet Mask, type the subnet mask of the router. The IP address and
subnet mask identies which addresses are local to a specic device and which
must be reached through a gateway or router.
7.2 Dynamic DNS
Internet service providers (ISPs) assign numbers called IP addresses to identify
each Internet account. Most ISPs use dynamically assigned IP addresses. This
means that the IP address can change at any time. You can use the IP address to
access your network remotely, but most people don’t know what their IP addresses
are or when this number changes.
To make it easier to connect, you can get a free account with a Dynamic DNS service
that lets you use a domain name to access your home network. To use this account,
you must set up the router to use Dynamic DNS. Then the router noties the
Dynamic DNS service provider whenever its IP address changes. When you access
your Dynamic DNS account, the service nds the current IP address of your home

Page - 22
network and automatically connects you.
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address(suchas192.168.x.xor10.x.x.x),the Dynamic
DNS service does not work because private addresses are not routed on the Internet.
Set Up a New Dynamic DNS Account To set up Dynamic DNS and register for a
free account:
How to change the Dynamic DNS settings
Access the Home page > Select Management > Dynamic DNS setting.
Select DDNS box to enable Dynamic DNS Service, Then in the Service Provider
list, select DynDNS.
In the domain name eld, type the name that you want to use for your URL.
In the Email eld, type the email address that you want to use for your account.
In the Password (6-32 characters) eld, type the password for your account.
Click Save & Apply button to apply and save all settings.

Note : To avoid the risk of corrupting the conguration le, do not interrupt the
upgrade. The update process typically takes about forty seconds.
To reset Settings to Default : Click the reset button and click OK to conrm
resetting the router to factory settings. (The reset and restart process typically
takes about twenty seconds.)
7.7 Password Change
This feature let you change the default password that is used to login to the router
with the user name admin. This password is not the one that you use for Wi-Fi
access. The router label shows your unique Wi-Fi network name (SSID)and
password for Wi-Fi access.
Note: Be sure to change the password for the username admin to a secure password.
The ideal password contains no dictionary words from any language and contains
uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. It can be up to 27
characters. To set the password for the username admin:
