Introduction 
With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing inform ation 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 user s, with or without the network wires. 
Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, a llowing more than two computers to access the Internet at 
the same time means less affordable, higher costs. Thus, th ere is a need to share one legal IP address over a single 
Internet connection to link the home with the Internet.  
The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet co nnection through an Internet sharing device can solve high 
network access costs. All linked computers can make fu ll 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 an d Internet access share, offering great cost savings.  
The local area network connects up 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 t hus 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-hack system. 
 
 
Features 
Compliant with IEEE 802. 11g and 802.11b Devices 
Built-in 4 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX LAN Ports 
Built-in 1 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX WAN Port (Internet)

Unpacking and Setup 
This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for  the IEEE 802.11g Wireless Broadband Router. 
 
 
Unpacking 
Open the box of the Wireless Broadband Router and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items: 
One IEEE 802.11g Wireless  Broadband Router 
One 2dBi dipole antenna 
One CD-ROM with User’s Guide 
One AC Power adapter 
If any item is found missing or damaged, please  contact your local reseller for replacement. 
 
 
Setup 
The setup of the Wireless Broadband 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 from 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 t he performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the 
receiving sensitivity.
