Introduction Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) has always been an attractive option for Internet asccess. It has all the benefits of optical fiber. It provides a future-proof network, in that you do not have to go through the hassles of upgrading from ADSL to xDSL, or digital co-ax to digital wireless. It does not have to struggle with electromagnetic interference problems, and with no active “outside-plant” components, it offers the highest reliability.
Features: Bridging Features Supports self-learning bridge specified in IEEE 802.1d Transparent Bridging Supports up to 4096 learning MAC addresses Transparent Bridging among 10/100 Mb Ethernet interface Supports IGMP Snooping Supports 802.
Chapter 1: Overview This chapter provides you the description for the LEDs and connectors in the front and rear surface of the router. Before you use/install this router, please take a look at this information first.
LED Indicators The NAT Smart Router is equipped with several LEDs…….as described in the table below (from left to right): LED Power Color Status Green On Off LINK/ACT.
Chapter 2: System Requirement and Installation System Requirement To access the NAT Smart Router via Ethernet, the host computer must meet the following requirements: Equipped with an Ethernet network interface. Have TCP/IP installed. Allow the client PC to obtain an IP address automatically or set a fixed IP address. With a web browser installed: Internet Explorer 5.x or later. The NAT Smat Router is configured with the default IP address of 192.168.1.254 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.

Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the WAN port of the Smart Router. 3. Attach one end of another Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connector to the LAN port of the Smart Router.
4. Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port of the host PC. 5. Connect the supplied power adapter to the PWR port of your Smart Router, and plug the other end to a power outlet.
Setting up IP address of Host PC In the case the DHCP server function of the Smart Router is disabled or you want to configure the IP address of the host PC, please follow the steps below for installation. 1. Open the Start menu, point to Network and Dial-up Connections and click it. 2. Right-click the Local Area Connection icon to pull down a window and then click Properties. 3. The Local Area Network Properties window appears.
4. The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window appears. On the General tab: 1) For the case DHCP Server of Smart Router is enabled, enable Obtain an IP address automatically and click OK. 2) For the case DHCP Server of Smart Router is enabled or you want to set the IP address by yourself, enable Use the following IP address and fill in the IP address field with the address of the same subnet with Smart Router, for example, 192.168.1.100; the Subnet mask field with value 255.255.255.
After configuring the IP address of the host PC, you can check if the IP address is correctly configured by the following steps: 1. Open the Start menu, point to run and click it.
2. Type cmd in the text book and click OK. 3. A command window will show and in the window type ipconfig /all and then press enter key. 4. In the command window will show the IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway…..etc. information. The IP address should be 192.168.1.xxx, xxx is a value other than 254 from 0 to 255, and the Subnet Mask should be 255.255.255.0 while the default gateway should be 192.168.1.254. 5.
then your PC and Smart Router are connected successfully. 3. If the window shows: then your PC and Smart Router are not connected correctly, you can check: 1) If the Ethernet cable between Smart Router and PC is correctly connected by checking if the link/ack LED is on. 2) If the IP address of the PC is correctly configured by following the steps described above.
Chapter 3: Quick Setup This chapter guides you through the steps to configure the basic features of your Smart Router, so that you can connect to the internet quickly. Using the Web-Based Manager After properly configuring your host PC, please proceed as follows: 1. Start your web browser and type 192.168.1.254, the default IP address of the Smart Router, in the URL field. 2. After connecting to the device, you will be prompted to enter username and password.
3. 4. An example under Windows XP is shown as the left figure. After you login successfully, the system info page will appear. From now on, the Smart Router acts as a web server sending HTML pages/forms on your request. You can fill in these pages/forms and apply them to the Smart Router. To surf the internet, you have to configure wan connection first. Click the button WAN on the left menu, and the WAN connection page will appear.
Then choose the wan connection type, PPPOE, Static IP, or Dynamic IP. If you chose PPPOE, you have to fix the Username/Password with your ADSL account. Click OK, and you can surf the internet.
you have to fix the IP Address/Subnet Mask/Gateway IP Address with the correct values. Click OK, and you can surf the internet. If you chose Dynamic IP, smart router will get an IP from the connected DHCP server, and you can surf the internet. 5.
Check the account, and configure by following the steps described above. Note: Make sure the validity of the account.
Chapter 4: Advance Setup This chapter guides you advanced features configuration of your Smart Router. 1. Status This page shows the status of your smart router. You can see WAN Status, LAN Status and System information here. 2. LAN (1) Fix the IP Address/Subnet Mask. (2) If you want to enable DNS Proxy, mark the check box, and click Apply. (3) If you want to enable DHCP Server function, mark the DHCP Server check box. You can also configure the IP Pool range (1-253).
This page shows the DHCP clients. If the client uses static IP, the type should be Static, and if the client uses obtain an IP address automatically, the type should be Dynamic. The list is timed refresh. If the entry is aging out, it will be cleared automatically. 4. WAN Connection The WAN Connection setup steps, you can refer Chapter 3: Quick Setup. Besides, you can configure static DNS list if you access the internet by method Static IP and Dynamic IP. 5.
