1. INTRODUCTION
The Webee Wireless N Router offers you a high-speed WiFi network and internet access
via a fixed or 3G broadband modem.
You can connect the router to an xDSL Modem (usually ADSL or VDSL), Cable Modem
or 3G USB Modem.
You can also connect a USB memory stick or external hard disk drive to the router and
share files among the users in a local network.
The router is ready for use without changing the factory default settings. However, for
wireless data security we recommend the following settings: changing of the network
name (SSID), setting the encryption mode for the wireless network traffic and setting a
user name and password in the router.
In the installation form you can collect the installation information for further use.
This document describes the steps required for the initial IP address assign and other
Webee Wireless N Router configuration.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Step 1: Place the Webee Router to the optimum transmission location. The best
transmission location for your wireless router is usually at the geographic center
of your wireless network, with the line of sight to all of your mobile stations.
Step 2: Connect the Webee Router to your wired network. Connect the Ethernet WAN
interface of the router by category 5 Ethernet cable to your switch/ hub/ xDSL
modem/ Cable modem. A straight-through Ethernet cable with appropriate cable
length is needed.
Step 3: Supply DC power to the Webee Router. Use only the AC/DC power adapter
supplied with the router; damage may occur if using a different type of power
adapter.
The hardware installation is finished.
3.2. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
There is no software drivers, patches or utilities installation needed, but only the
configuration setting. Please refer to chapter 4 for software configuration.
Notice: It will take about 50 seconds to complete the boot up
sequence after powered on the Router; Power LED will be
active, and after that the WLAN LED will be flashing to show
the WLAN interface is enabled and working now.
