300M Wireless N Router RNX-N300RT User Manual
Chapter 3 Quick Installation Guide
This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your RNX-N300RT using
Quick Setup Wizard within minutes.
3.1 TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the RNX-N300RT is 192.168.1.1. And the default Subnet Mask
is 255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all
the default values for description.
Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the Router. And then you can configure the IP
address for your PC in the following two ways.
¾ Configure the IP address manually
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do
this, please refer to Appendix B: "Configuring the PC".
2) Configure the network parameters. The default IP address is 192.168.1.xxx
("xxx" is any number from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and
Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The Router's default IP address)
¾ Obtain an IP address automatically
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your
PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to Appendix B:
"Configuring the PC”.
2) Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network
connection between your PC and the Router. The following example is in Windows 2000
OS.
Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, and then press Enter.
¾ If the result displayed is similar to the Figure 3-1, it means the connection between
your PC and the Router has been established well.
