Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband

Hardware Installation for Connection to Another Router

Before you install the Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband, you will need to check if the default IP address of
the other Router is 192.168.1.1. If so, there will be an IP address conflict with the new Router. Follow the
instructions below to change the default IP address of the existing Router to 192.168.2.1.
NOTE: Steps 1-4 are instructions for a typical Linksys router; however, if you are using
a non-Linksys router, refer to the other router's documentation for instructions on how
to change its local IP address to 192.168.2.1.
First, make sure the Router is NOT connected to your network. Then follow these instructions:
1. To access the other Router's Web-based Utility, launch Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, and enter the
other router's default IP address in the Address field. Then press Enter.
2. A password request page will appear. Leave the User Name field blank. In the Password field, enter the
password you have set (the default password is admin). Then click the OK button.
3. The first screen that appears will display the Setup tab. In the Network Setup section, there is a setting
called Local IP Address, which is set to 192.168.1.1. Change this to 192.168.2.1.
4. Click the Save Settings button to save your change, and then exit the Web-based Utility.
5. Power down your network devices. Now you will begin the hardware installation of Router.
6. Locate an optimum location for the Router. The best place for the Router is usually at the center of your
wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile stations.
7. Attach the antenna and fix its direction. Try to place the Router in a position that will best cover your
wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be.
8. Connect a standard Ethernet network cable to the Router's Internet port. Then, connect the other end of the
Ethernet cable to one of the numbered Ethernet ports on your other router.
