There is a huge competition in the current TP-Link Wireless route configuration. Some people may not know what the TP-Link Wireless route configuration is. It doesn't matter. I read the following parameters, you will also become an expert. A Wireless Broadband Router and a wireless network card can easily fulfill our wish! In addition, laptops of friends and family members with wireless NICs can also join the wireless network at any time to share files, print and access the Internet, and enjoy wireless freedom.
Next I will introduce how to enable two computers in the two rooms to quickly share the Internet cafes through a wireless broadband router and wireless network card. We assume that the environment is like this. There are two rooms in this House: computer A and computer B, Internet access through ADSL, And ADSL connection to computer, computer B in another room cannot access the Internet. Now we take TP-LINK Wireless Broadband Router and TL-WR541G wireless PCI Nic as an example to see how to install the configuration to make it reach our TP-Link Wireless routing configuration requirements.
The hardware installation is quite simple: at computer A, connect the ADSL Modem to the WAN port of the Wireless Broadband Router through the network cable attached to the ADSL Modem to prepare A 50 cm-long network cable, use it to connect the NIC of computer A and the LAN port of the Wireless Broadband Router. Then, install the wireless network card in computer B, install the driver and tool software in the CD attached to the wireless network card, and connect the power of the Wireless Broadband Router. This completes the hardware installation and connection.
TP-Link Wireless route Configuration
When we configure Wireless Broadband Router for the first time, refer to the instructions to find the Wireless Broadband Router default IP address is 192.168.1.1, the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 because the TP-LINK TL-WR541G configuration interface is based on the browser, therefore, we must first establish the correct network settings. We have connected computer A to the LAN port of the Wireless Broadband Router through the NIC. Next we have two ways to set IP addresses for computer. Set the IP address range of computer A to 192.168.1.xxxxxx to 2 to 254), subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, and default gateway to 192.168.1.1.
Set the TCP/IP protocol of computer A to "automatically obtain IP addresses", disable the power of Wireless Broadband Router and computer A, first turn on the power of Wireless Broadband Router, and then start computer, in this way, the DHCP server built in the Wireless Broadband Router automatically sets an IP address for computer.
After completing the above steps, we use computer A to open an Internet Explorer window and enter http: // 192.168.1.1 in the address bar to enter the configuration interface. Enter the default user name and password as shown in the following figure after you press Enter. You can see that the entire interface is Chinese, so the following configuration will be very easy.
Continue. Note that the name of your own SSID will be used later. Click Finish and you will be back here. At this point, we have completed the most basic settings. At this time, we can access the Internet through computer A, but some wireless network settings need to be made to ensure the security of the wireless network, prevent others from accessing our wireless network and ensure the security of our own computers.
The security settings of wireless networks are commonly used. One is to pass the security authentication of keys, and the other is to filter the MAC addresses of wireless NICs, key Authentication is suitable for wireless networks with a large number of computers. You only need to set a key at the Wireless Broadband Router end once, in the future, enter the key on each computer that joins the wireless network.
MAC address: the MAC address is the unique encoding of each network card in the world) the filter function prevents computers with certain MAC addresses from accessing the local wireless network or only computers with these MAC addresses from accessing the local wireless network. In this case, only one computer needs to be added. Therefore, it is more suitable to use MAC address filtering, and external wireless devices with high security will not be able to access our wireless network, therefore, you only need to add a MAC address on the Wireless Broadband Router side. Then, follow the following steps to configure the TP-Link Wireless route:
To enable filtering, We need to configure the DHCP function of the following Wireless Broadband Router to make it easier and easier to use in the future: in this way, we have completed the most simple installation and configuration of the Wireless Broadband Router. Configure your wireless network card. Now we only need to set up the wireless network card installed on computer B to access the Internet through the wireless network. So we continue to configure the TP-Link Wireless route: then we can use computer B to access the Internet through wireless networks. Of course, we can also share files and printers in wireless networks, as long as the corresponding settings can be achieved.
