1. Introduction 1.5.5 How to Operate DO NOT connect the router to power before performing the installation steps below. Step 1: Screw the antenna in a clockwise direction to the back panel of the unit. Step 2: Plug the RJ45 cable into LAN port 1~4 and connect with your PC or NB. Step 3: Plug your RJ-45 into the WAN port and connect with your xDSL modem. Step 4: Plug the power jack into it.
1. Introduction Step 5: Power ON. Step 6: Prepare a USB Storage and then plug into the USB port. 1.6 Wireless Operation Modes 1.6.1 AP Router (Default Setting) In this mode, you can share your 3G Internet connection and/or broadband connection. If you do not have a 3G USB dongle, you can still share your ADSL modem, xDSL mdoem, or Cable Modem connections. If you have both 3G and Broadband, you can use both for connection backup. 1.6.
1. Introduction 1.6.4 WDS Only This mode is also known as “WDS Pure MAC Bridge mode”. When configured to operate in the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) Mode, the N450R provides bridging functions with remote LAN networks in the WDS system. Each bridge can only associate with maximum of 4 other bridges in the WDS configuration. This mode is best used when you want to connect LAN networks together wirelessly. This mode usually delivers faster performance than infrastructure mode. 1.6.
