ABOUT THIS GUIDE
Congratulations on your purchase of this IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Broadband
Router. This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with
wireless LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. It provides a complete solution for Internet
surfing and office resource sharing, and it is easy to configure and operate for every
user.
Purpose
This manual discusses how to install the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router.
Terms/Usage
In this guide, the term “the WLAN Router” refers to your IEEE 802.11b/g/n
Wireless Home Router.
Overview of this User’s Guide
Introduction. Describes the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router and its
features.
Unpacking and Setup. Helps you get started with the basic installation of the IEEE
802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router.
Identifying External Components. Describes the front panel, rear panel and LED
indicators of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router.

INTRODUCTION
With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at
any time, day or night has become a standard requirement for most people. The era
of the standalone PC is waning. Networking technology is moving out of the
exclusive domain of corporations and into homes with at least two computers.
This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with wireless
LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the business and home, it saves you
the cost of installing a separate modem and ISP line for each computer, while
providing ready connection for the users, with or without the network wires.
Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, allowing more than
two computers to access the Internet at the same time means less affordable, higher
costs. Thus, there is a need to share one public IP address over a single Internet
connection to link the home with the Internet.
The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet connection through an
Internet sharing device can solve high network access costs. All linked computers
can make full use of broadband capabilities over such a device.
This device not only comes equipped with a wide range of features, but also can be
installed and configured right out of the box. This device supports a simple local
area network and Internet access share, offering great cost savings.
The local area network connects home computers while also allowing any of the
computers to access the Internet, share resources, or play online games—the basis
of the family computing lifestyle.
Applications:
Broadband Internet access:
Several computers can share one high-speed broadband connection through
wireless or wired (WLAN, LAN and WAN-Internet).
Resource sharing:
Share resources such as printers, scanners and other peripherals.
File sharing:
Exchange data, messages, and distribute files thus making good use of hard disk
space.
Online gaming:
Through the local area network, online gaming and e-commerce services can be
easily setup.
Firewall:
A built-in firewall function — for security and anti-hacking systems.

Supported Features:
¾High speed data transfer rate
¾NAT for sharing 1 IP address to all LAN/WLAN users.
¾PPPoE and PPTP protocol for Dial-Up ADSL.
¾64/128 bit WEP Encryption
¾WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA, WPA2 security
¾DHCP Server / Client.
¾UPnP (Universal Plug and Play).
¾WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
¾Virtual Server mapping.
¾MAC filtering.
¾Protocol/IP filtering
¾Domain/URL filtering
¾DDNS
¾Upgradeable firmware for future function.
¾Simple installation using Setup Wizard.
¾Easy configuration via Web Browser.

UNPACKING AND SETUP
This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the IEEE 802.11b/g/n
Wireless Home Router.
Unpacking
Open the box of the WLAN Router and carefully unpack it. The box should contain
the following items:
TEW-632BRP Wireless N Home Router
Easy Go Installation CD
Multi-Language Quick Installation Guide
2 x 2dBi gain dipole antenna
External power adapter
1.5m (5ft) Cat.5 Ethernet Cable
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for
replacement.
Setup
The setup of the WLAN Router can be performed properly using the following
methods:
The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Broadband Router.
Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the
power adapter.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around
the Broadband Router. Do not place heavy objects on the Broadband Router.
Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the Wireless Router in a position
that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the
antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the
receiving sensitivity.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Front Panel
The figure below shows the front panel of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home
Router.
Front Panel
POWER
This indicator lights green when the hub is receives power, otherwise it is off.
SYSTEM
This indicator blinking green means the WLAN Router is working successfully.
Otherwise, this indicator always on or off means the function of the WLAN Router
has failed.
WAN (Link/ACT)
The indicators light green when the WAN port is connected to a xDSL/Cable
modem successfully.
The indicators blink green while the WAN port was transmitting or receiving data
from the xDSL/Cable modem.
WLAN (ACT)
This indicator lights green when there are wireless devices connected and
transmitting data to the WLAN Router.
LAN (Link/ACT)
These indicators light green when the LAN ports were connected successfully.
These indicators blinking green while the LAN ports were accessing data.

Rear Panel
The figure below shows the rear panel of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home
Router.
Rear Panel
Antenna
There are two 2dBi gain antennas on the rear panel for wireless connection.
LAN (1-4)
Four RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX ports for connecting to either 10Mbps or
100Mbps Ethernet connections.
WAN
In the four port broadband Router, there is an RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX port
for the WAN that connects to the xDSL/Cable modem for Internet connectivity.
POWER
Plug the power adapter to this power jack
RESET
Use a pin-shaped item to push to reset this device to factory default settings. It will
be a useful tool when the manager forgot the password to login, and needs to
restore the device back to default settings.

Side Panel
The figure below shows the side panel of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home
Router.
WPS (side panel)
Push this button to execute the Wi-Fi Protected Setup process.

Hardware connections
Connecting the WLAN Router
1. Plug in one end of the network cable to the WAN port of the WLAN Router.
2. Plug in the other end of the network cable to the Ethernet port of the xDSL or
Cable modem.
3. Use another network cable to connect to the Ethernet card on the computer
system; the other end of the cable connects to the LAN port of the WLAN
Router. Since the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router has four ports, you
can connect up to four computers directly to the unit. Then you do not have to
buy a switch to connect these computers since one WLAN Router functions both
as a connection-sharing unit and as a switch.
Check the installation
The control LEDs of the WLAN Router are clearly visible and the status of the
network link can be seen instantly:
1. With the power source on, once the device is connected to the broadband modem,
the Power, System, LAN, WLAN and WAN port LEDs of the WLAN Router
will light up 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.
