After connecting the MR4-WR642G Router into your network, you should configure it. This 

chapter describes how to configure the basic functions of your MR4-WR642G Wireless Router. 

These procedures only take you a few minutes. You can access the Internet via the router 

immediately after successfully configuring. 

The default IP address of the MR4-WR642G 108Mbps Wireless Router is 192.168.1.1. And the 

default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be seen from the LAN. They can be 

changed as you desire, as an example we use the default values for description in this guide. 

Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the router. There are then two ways to configure the IP 

address for your PC. 

¾

  Configure the IP address manually 

1)  Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, 

please refer to 

Appendix B: "Configuring the PC."

 

2)  Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is from 2 to 

254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The router's default 

IP address)

  Obtain an IP address automatically 

1)  Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your PC. 

If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to 

Appendix B: "Configuring the 

PC."

 

2)  The built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC automatically. 

: Windows 98 OS or before may need you to restart the PC and router. 

Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection 

between your PC and the router. The following example is in Windows 2000 OS. 

Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, and then press Enter. 

If the result displayed is similar to that shown in Figure 4-1, the connection between your PC and 

the router has been established.
