Chapter 3.System Configuration

3.1 Computer Configuration

The default IP address of the ADSL2+ Router is 192.168.1.1, and the default Subnet Mask is

255.255.255.0. These values can be seen from the LAN, and can be changed as your desire. As

an example, we use the default values for description in this guide.

1. Connect the cable according to Chapter 2, turn on the power.

2. Connect the local PCs to the ADSL2+ Router’s LAN port. There are then two means to

configure the IP address for your PCs.

¾Configure the IP address manually

1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC(s).

2) Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is from 2 to

254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The ADSL2+

Router’s default IP address).

¾Obtain an IP address automatically

1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your

PC(s).

2) The built-in DHCP server will assign IP addresses for the PC(s).

)Note:

If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to5Appendix B: Configuring the PCs.

Remarks: you can check whether your configuration is successful through PING command. Enter

Ping 192.168.1.1

If the screen looks like the following, you have been successful.

If the screen looks like the following, the connection has failed. Please try again.
