Introduction

The N4100 combines an IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless access point, router,

4-port switch and service gateway in one box. A "statement printer"

allows you to easily generate subscriber accounts and print account

statements. You can connect it directly to the N4100. The subscriber is a

client with authenticated access to the Internet through the N4100.

In this example, a computer connects to the N4100’s (a) LAN port for

management. You also attach a RADIUS server for subscriber

authentication and a statement printer (c) for statements printing. The

N4100 connects to a broadband modem (b), which then connects to the

Internet. Wireless subscribers have seamless Internet access through

the N4100.

In this guide, you will:

• Make Hardware Connections to set up your device.

• Access the Web Configurator to use the Setup Wizard to configure

the WAN connection, wireless settings, e-mail and authentication

services, and set the billing profile on the N4100. You can also use

the wizard to set how to generate accounts and print statements,

and change the system password and time.

ENGLISH

• Hang the N4100 on a wall.

Hardware Connections

This section shows you how to set up your N4100.

ENGLISH

1. LAN 1~4: Use Ethernet cables to connect the LAN ports to

computers, switches and a statement printer (optional).

2. WAN: Connect your broadband modem to this port with the Ethernet

cable that came with your modem.

3. Attach the included antennas to the N4100. The antennas should be

perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other.

4. POWER: Connect the N4100's included power adaptor to the

N4100's power socket.

Check the LEDs (Lights)

Look at the LEDs (lights) on the front panel of the N4100.

• The PWR light (LED) turns on.

• The WAN or LAN light turns on if its corresponding port is properly

connected. The lights blink when the N4100 is sending or receiving

data through the corresponding port.

• The WLAN light stays green when the wireless LAN is enabled. It

blinks when the N4100 is sending/receiving data through the

wireless LAN.

• The SYS light turns on once the N4100 is ready.

 If no lights are on, check your connections. Make sure that

you have the power adaptor connected to the N4100 and

plugged in to an appropriate power source. Make sure the

power source is turned on. Turn the N4100 off, wait for a few

seconds and turn it back on. If the LEDs are still off, contact

your local vendor.

Web Configurator

This section shows you how to access and log into the Web

Configurator.

1. From the computer connected to the N4100, open a web browser

such as Internet Explorer or Firefox.

2. Enter http://192.168.1.1 (the

N4100’s default LAN IP address) in

the browser’s address bar.

3. Enter admin as the default user name and 1234 as the default

password. Click Login.

ENGLISH

 If the login screen does not display, make sure you allow

web browser pop-up windows, JavaScript and Java

permissions. Your computer should be also set to get an IP

address automatically from a DHCP server. See the User’s

Guide for more information.

Setup Wizard

The wizard setup screens appear automatically after your first login.

1. Fill in the fields with information from your ISP. The screen varies

depending on the encapsulation type you use. Leave fields set to the

default if you don't have that information.

If your ISP didn’t provide you any Internet access information, select

DHCP Client.

If your ISP gave you an IP address (and gateway and DNS server

addresses), select Static IP Setting and enter them.

If your ISP gave you a user name and password, select PPPoE.

ENGLISH

If your ISP gave you a user name, password and IP address(es),

select PPTP.

2. Enter a unique name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII characters) as

the ESSID to identify the N4100 in the wireless LAN.

Select a channel (range of radio frequencies) that is not being used

by other wireless devices in the area.

Select a security type and enter a key for data encryption. If you set

Security to Disabled, any one within range can access your network

wirelessly.

WPA or WPA2 provides user authentication and data encryption.

Data encryption of WPA or WPA2 is stronger than WEP's. The pre-

shared key is case-sensitive ASCII characters (including spaces and

symbols). Use the advanced wireless setup screen if you want to use

WPA or WPA2 with a RADIUS server (see the User's Guide for

details).

WEP provides data encryption only (no user authentication).

3. You can configure a backup e-mail server in the event that a

subscriber's e-mail server is unreachable from the N4100.
