Next talk about wireless device installation: ap and Routing

There are many related articles about wireless device installation. Here, we will summarize the installation ideas for a wide audience of readers. We hope to help you clarify your ideas and configure your devices so that wireless Internet access is unobstructed.

To connect a wireless LAN to the Internet, the most important thing is to have a terminal connected to the Internet, which is a wireless router or Wireless AP. The biggest difference between the two is that a wireless router not only has a WAN port, but generally has four LAN ports. In addition to the wireless function, it is a wired four-port router, wireless AP has only one WAN port, but only a pure wireless coverage. After learning about wireless access devices, we will teach you how to install wireless devices step by step.

Wireless device installation: wireless router and AP Installation

Next, the interconnection between hardware. If you select a Wireless AP and a desktop computer, you should also prepare a wired switch. Of course, if you choose a wireless router, you do not need a switch. The connection between the Wireless AP and the wireless router is similar. Next we will introduce the wireless router. We need to select a suitable location within the scope of work so that each terminal is enclosed in the wireless range of the wireless router) Place the wireless router and connect it to the power source, pull out its back-end antenna, connect the network cable to the ADSL Modem, for example:

The interconnection diagram between hardware installed on wireless devices)

A wireless router has a network cable that can be connected to its upper-level devices, such as switches or routers, and Internet connection points, such as ADSL cats ), to connect the covered wireless network with other networks. If the access point is an ADSL cat + Broadband Router, you can follow 568A at one end of the crystal head, And the 568B standard at the other end, that is, the crossover line) A network cable is directly connected to the wireless network access point and the ADSL cat + Broadband Router. Of course, if the wireless network access point is connected to the HUB or switch, then both ends follow the 568A or 568B standard, that is, parallel lines.

Note: The current wireless router or the WAN port of the Wireless AP can be automatically flipped. That is to say, the two lines can be crossed or parallel lines, and they can be adjusted by themselves.

Generally, after connecting to the upper-level device, you can directly use the wireless function according to the default configuration of the wireless router. However, this is guaranteed in terms of management and security. In addition, many wireless routers have setup wizard, which can be easily completed. First, remove the network cable connected to the MODEM to connect the router, and press its default IP address to enter the WEB Settings interface.

You can use a crossover line to connect to your computer and one end to the LAN port of the wireless router. Note that it is not the WAN port). Then, open the IE browser, enter the default IP address of the wireless router in the address bar. Please refer to your product manual, generally http: // 192.168.1.1). Then you will be prompted to enter the wireless router account and password to enter the configuration program, for more information, see the instructions.

Step 1: Pay attention to the IP address of the wireless router. In the end, we need to connect the wireless router to the Modem, so the IP addresses of the two should not be the same. Please modify the IP addresses according to the actual situation and ensure that the subnet mask is the same.

Step 2: Like Modem, we also need to enable the DHCP service function of the wireless router. Find the option to enable.

Step 3: Determine the WAN connection type. Because we have enabled the DHCP function, we should select "automatically obtain IP addresses ".

Step 4: Write down the vrossid ssid number, which is the verification ID for the network adapter to connect to the wireless network normally.

Some problems need to be clarified here. First, after dynamic IP addresses are enabled, you must set the starting IP address. This is based on the IP address of your wireless router, starting from the last digit of the IP address of the wireless router to 255. The other is that some wireless routers allow you to set the number of users, which depends on your settings in the starting IP address. For example, the starting IP address is 150, the maximum number of users you can set is 105255-150.

Now, you only need to install the wireless device in these steps. Restart the router to make the settings take effect.
