This section will guide you to install the router through hardware connection and configure
the router’s settings through web browser.
Before starting to configure the router, you have to connect your devices correctly.
1. Connect the power cord to the router’s power port on the rear panel, and the other side
into a wall outlet.
2. Power on the device by pressing down the power switch on the rear panel.
3. The system starts to initiate. After completing the system test, the ACT LED will light
up and start blinking.
4. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable (RJ-45) to one of the LAN ports of the router and
the other end of the cable (RJ-45) into the Ethernet port on your computer (that device
also can connect to other computers to form a small area network). The LAN LED will
light up according to the network card feature (10Mpbs or 100Mpbs) of the device that
it connected.
5. Connect a modem/router (depends on your requirement) to any WAN port of router
with Ethernet cable (RJ-45). The WAN1/WAN2 LED (down/up) will light up
according to the network card feature ((10Mpbs or 100Mpbs) of the device that it
