Getting Started

Package Contents

The package contains the Zoom Wireless-N 4-port Router, an RJ-45 Ethernet cable, a 5V 1.0A power cube, a Quick Start flyer, and a CD that contains additional documentation and warranty information.

If anything is missing or damaged, please contact Zoom Customer Support or whoever provided the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

Introduction

The Wireless-N 4-port Router can be used in 3 different modes. Once you determine which mode you want to use, you can follow the relevant chapters of this User Manual.

• Router Mode: The device is set up to be in Router Mode by default. In the Router Mode, the device provides wired and wireless access to clients on a network. Most users will use this mode. To use the Router Mode, go to Chapter 2.
• As an Ethernet Client, the Router allows a device with an Ethernet port, such as a gaming console, computer, or HDTV, to join an existing wireless network. You might use Ethernet Client mode for a device that doesn't have wireless capability, or for a device where you need the superior wireless range of the Wireless-N 4-port Router. To use the Router as an Ethernet Client, go to Chapter 3.
• In the Repeater Mode, the Router is used to extend the range of a wireless network. You can use this mode if, for example, the main wireless Router is in the basement of a multi-floor home and you are unable to access it from some locations. In this instance, you can install the Wireless-N 4-port Router on another floor of the house to provide access to both wired and wireless devices throughout the house. To use the Router as a Repeater, go to Chapter 4.

Using the Router Mode

This chapter explains how to setup your Wireless-N 4-port Router in Router Mode. Most users will select this mode. In Router Mode the Wireless-N 4-port Router typically connects to a broadband modem such as a Cable or ADSL modem and becomes the center of a wired and/or wireless network.

Installing the Hardware

1 Place the Wireless-N 4-port Router near a computer to be used for setup. This computer needs an Ethernet (LAN) port.
2 Turn off the computer.

3 Attach the antenna to the Router if the antenna isn't already attached. (Remove the antenna from the package. Place the end of the detachable antenna on the open antenna connection port and rotate the antenna clockwise by hand until it no longer turns easily. It may take many turns before the antenna is completely connected. Move the antenna into a vertical orientation. The antenna should snap into place.)

4 Connect one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to the computer's Ethernet port and the other end to any of the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Ethernet (LAN) ports.

Note: If you are using a Cable or ADSL modem to access the Internet, unplug that Ethernet cable from your computer and plug it into the Router's WAN port. Then connect one end of the supplied

Ethernet cable to the computer's Ethernet port and the other end to any of the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Ethernet (LAN) ports.

5 Plug the supplied power cube into the Wireless-N 4-port Router and then into a power outlet.

Important: Use only the power cube shipped with the Wireless-N 4-port Router. Other power cubes may damage the device.

6 Turn on the computer. The connected Ethernet (LAN) port light should start blinking or stay on. If the connected Ethernet (LAN) light doesn't blink or turn on, please see Appendix A:

Troubleshooting Tips.

Using the Setup Wizard

1 In the computer's Web browser address bar, type http://192.168.2.1 and then click Enter.

2 When the USER'S MAIN MENU opens, it displays a Status page that lists the current values for a variety of settings. If the Status page doesn't appear, please see Appendix A: Troubleshooting Tips.

3 In the System Password field, type admin and then click Login.

Note: Later, if you change the System Password, you will use the new password to log in.

4 Click Wizard on the Toolbar to launch the Setup Wizard, which will guide you through the configuration process.

5 The Setup Wizard page opens.

6 Each of the five Steps guides you in configuring a specific setting or group of settings. When you click Next or Back, you move from one step to another. If there is a setting that you don't want to change, simply click Next to go to the next setting.

Step 1. Setup Login Password

To view or change configuration settings, you must enter a password. Your Router's default password admin was set by the factory and you used it to access the Configuration Manager initially. To safeguard your configuration, particularly if you make changes, we recommend that you change the login password. If you want to keep the default password, click Next and continue reading at step 2 below. If you want a new password, continue with step 1 directly below.

1 On the Setup Login Password page, type the old password (initially admin) in the Old Password field.
2 Type the new password in the New Password field.
3 Type the new password in the Reconfirm field, and then click Next.

Note: If you forget the new password, you won't have access to the Configuration Manager and will need to restore the device to its factory settings (see Resetting the Router to the Factory Configuration), thus losing any changes you made to your Router's configuration. To avoid this problem, we recommend that you write the new password here and on the bottom of your Wireless-N 4-port Router, and that you also save it elsewhere such as a settings document.

PASSWORD:

Step 2. WAN Setup

The WAN Type refers to the protocol used by your Internet Service Provider in establishing your Internet connection.

Selecting the WAN Type

On the WAN Type Setup page, you can either Auto Detect your WAN connection or Setup your WAN connection manually.

If you are not sure what connection type you are using, we suggest that you run Auto Detect since it only takes a couple of seconds to run and the Setup Wizard will automatically display the manual setup option page if Auto Detect fails. (The Auto Detect option only detects Dynamic IP and PPPoE.) If you Auto Detect your connection and it is successful, the Setup Wizard will display the appropriate page to set up your connection using either the Dynamic IP page (see Configuring the Dynamic IP Address on page 11) or the PPPoE page (See Configuring PPPoE on page 12) If you Auto Detect your connection and it is not successful, the Setup Wizard will display the Manually Selecting your WAN Type page as shown below.

Manually Selecting your WAN Type

If you selected Setup your WAN Connection Manually or the manual setup option page below appears after you run Auto Detect, select your connection from the following options:

• Dynamic IP Address: Select this if you are using a cable modem or if your ADSL modem does not use PPPoE. Most users will select this. (ADSL service providers will typically tell you whether you are using PPPoE, which requires you to enter a PPPoE-related password into the Router. If you are using ADSL with 1483 routed, bridged, or PPPoA modes, you are not using PPPoE.)
• PPPoE: Select this if you are using an ADSL Router with PPPoE.
• Static IP Address: Typically you must request and pay extra for a static IP. In the unlikely event that you have done this, select Static IP Address.
• L2TP: The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol is more common in corporate environments and most users will not use this setting. In the unlikely event that you are using a VPN to access a network that uses Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol, select this option.
• PPTP: The Point to Point Tunneling Protocol is more common in corporate environments and most users will not use this setting. In the unlikely event that you are using a VPN that uses Point to Point Tunneling Protocol, select this option.

Note: If you read the discussion above and are still unsure which WAN Type to choose, please check with your service provider.

Click Next.

Then reconnect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a PC. Power off the computer and power it back on. (This is important because the computer must locate the correct IP address for the modem. This is done when the computer is turned back on.) Log in to the Configuration Manager to use the Setup Wizard following the instructions at the beginning of this section.

Note: If you had to unplug any cables or make any changes to the computer that you used to configure the Wireless-N 4-port Router you now should restore that computer back to its original state.

Setting up the Wireless-N 4-port Router as a Repeater

This chapter explains how to set up the Wireless-N 4-port Router as a Repeater using WDS (Wireless Distribution System) to boost and extend the range of your wireless network. WDS is especially useful in large homes or workplaces, including ones with multiple floors. Additional routers may be used to extend the range of your wireless network in any direction. These routers can either connect to each other or to a central router.

Setting up a WDS network

Setting up a WDS network typically requires you to setup at least two routers. A base station router that is connected to your Cable or ADSL modem (or in the case of a wireless Cable or ADSL modem that supports WDS, the modem itself), and a remote station router that is located closer to the devices that are having trouble accessing your wireless network. The setup for the Wireless-N 4-port Router is the same whether or not you are using it as a base station or a remote station. However if you are using the Wireless-N 4-port Router as the base station you should have already configured the WAN connection as described in Chapter 2.

If you are using a router other than the Wireless-N 4-port Router as your base station you may need to setup WDS on that router. If you are unsure if you need to setup WDS in your router we recommend first setting up the Wireless-N 4-port Router as your remote station and trying to connect to the base station. If you are able to connect and access the Internet, you do not need to perform any additional setup on your router. If you can not access the Internet you may need to setup up the other router. Please refer to the documentation included with your device.

Note: You may need to know the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Wireless MAC address to setup the other router. The Wireless MAC address is located on the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Status page. Select the Wireless MAC address that appears in the middle of the page in the Wireless Status section, not the WAN MAC address in the System Status section.

If you wish to extend the range of your wireless network even further you may add additional Wireless-N 4-port Routers to your network. These routers can connect either to your base station router or to an existing remote station router.

Deciding which WDS Mode to Use

The Wireless-N 4-port Router supports both Hybrid Repeater mode and WDS Only mode. Hybrid mode is used when you want to extend the range of your wireless network to both wired

and wireless devices. WDS Only mode (also called a wireless bridge) only allows wired devices to be connected directly to the Repeater. WDS Only mode is typically used when you wish to connect two separate wired networks. Most users should select Hybrid mode.

Installing the Hardware

1 Place the Wireless-N 4-port Router near a computer to be used for setup. This computer needs an Ethernet (LAN) port.

2 Turn off the computer.

3 Attach the antenna to the Router if the antenna isn't already attached. (Remove the antenna from the package. Place the end of the detachable antenna on the open antenna connection port and rotate the antenna clockwise by hand until it no longer turns easily. It may take many turns before the antenna is completely connected. Move the antenna into a vertical orientation. The antenna should snap into place.)

4 Connect one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to the computer's Ethernet port and the other end to any of the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Ethernet (LAN) ports.

5 Plug the supplied power cube into the Wireless-N 4-port Router, and then into a power outlet. Important: Use only the power cube shipped with the Wireless-N 4-port Router. Other power cubes may damage the device.

6 Turn on the computer. The connected Ethernet (LAN) port light should start blinking. If the connected Ethernet (LAN) light doesn't blink, please see Appendix A: Troubleshooting Tips.

Connecting Wireless Devices to the Wireless-N 4-port Router

This chapter provides tips for connecting wireless devices (computers, phones, tablets, game stations, etc.) wirelessly to the Wireless-N 4-port Router. If you are familiar with this already, or if you prefer to use the instructions associated with each device, you don't need to read this chapter. You do need to make sure that each device connecting to the Wireless-N 4-port Router is set up to connect to the Router and its associated SSID, and that each device's wireless security settings are compatible with the Router's wireless security settings.

Establishing your Wireless Network

Note that for each computer or other device added to your wireless network, you will need to take appropriate steps for setting up that computer or other device. To do that, select one of the possibilities for that computer or other device below:

Many newer Windows 7, Vista, and XP computers have built-in wireless networking capabilities and do not require the installation of a wireless component. If this is the case, you should set up that computer's wireless connection using the Windows 7, Vista, or XP connect utility. See the sections below on connecting Windows 7 (page 36), Vista (page 38), or XP (page 38) computers with built-in wireless capabilities.
Some computers may have built-in wireless networking capabilities, but do not use the Windows 7, Vista, or XP utility to configure their device. If this is so, set up your computer's wireless connection using the instructions on page 39 for Connecting a Wireless-enabled Computer or Device to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.
If you have a non-computer wireless device like an iPhone or other cellular phone, iPod Touch, etc., see the instructions on page 39 for Connecting a Wireless-enabled Computer or Device to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.
Some computers may need a wireless network adapter installed. This can be a USB adapter, PC Card adapter, or PCI adapter. When you install the adapter, make sure that it is set to infrastructure or access point mode (NOT ad-hoc or peer-to-peer mode). If you need help installing your wireless adapter or setting its mode, refer to the documentation that came with it. After you install the adapter, see the instructions on page 40 for Connecting a Computer with a wireless adapter to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.
In the unlikely event that all the wireless devices you plan to connect to your network support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can use WPS to connect and secure your devices in one step. To use WPS please refer to Appendix C, Setting up your Network using WPS.

Click Save to save changes.

Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page.

Virtual Computers: Allows you to set up one-to-one mapping of multiple global IP address and local IP address. Also known as "Static 1-1 NAT" where each LAN host can have a direct and fixed mapping to a global address.

Global IP: Enter the global IP address assigned by your ISP.

Local IP: Enter the local IP address of your LAN PC corresponding to the global IP address.

The LAN Setup Page

You can use the LAN Setup page to configure your LAN settings.

LAN IP Address

This is the address of this device. The LAN IP address is always the default gateway for devices on the LAN. Note: if you change the LAN IP address you will need to log back into the Router using the new LAN address.

Subnet Mask

The Router's subnet mask address. Most users will not need to change this.

DHCP Server

By default DHCP Server is enabled; this allows the Router to assign IP addresses to the devices connected to your Wireless-N 4-port Router. Disable the DHCP Server if you wish to use static IP addresses on your network or you have another device on your network that you want to use as your DHCP server

When DHCP Server is enabled you will need to have the Subnet Mask, Lease Time, IP Pool Starting Address, and IP Pool Ending Address for your network which, by default are all entered.

Lease Time

The maximum amount of time, in minutes, that a network device will have the temporary IP address before a new one is issued by the Router's DHCP server.

IP Pool Starting Address

The first IP address of a range that you specify using the Start and End IP Address settings. Your Router's DHCP server will assign the IP addresses in this range at random to the computers and devices in your network. Note that the Start and End IP Addresses must both be in the same subnet as the IP Address, above.

IP Pool Ending Address

The last IP address of a range that you specify using the Start and End IP Address settings. Your modem's DHCP server will assign numbers from this range at random to the computers and devices in your network. By default the DHCP server has 253 addresses available to assign. Note that the Start and End IP Addresses must both be in the same subnet as the IP Address, above.

Domain Name (optional)

This information will be passed to the client. Some ISPs require you to configure this item, such as @Home.

More>> When you click this button, you get the following fields:

Primary DNS

This is the Domain Name System (DNS) server's IP address. Your service provider supplies this address, if needed. Most users should not need to enter a DNS value.

Secondary DNS

This is the IP address of an alternate Domain Name System (DNS) server. Your service provider supplies this address, if needed.

Primary WINS (optional)

This is a Microsoft implementation that serves as a central mapping of host names to network addresses. WINS also provides the functionality of keeping the client names unique on the network.

Secondary WINS (optional)

This is a Microsoft implementation that serves as a central mapping of host names to network addresses. WINS also provides the functionality of keeping the client names unique on the network.

Gateway

This is the IP address of the router that serves as the access point to the Internet. This IP address might be your ISP's gateway's IP address or the IP address of your cable or ADSL modem.

Click Save to save changes.

Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page.

Clients List: Lists the current mapping of the IP and MAC address for each DHCP client.

Fixed Mapping

Clicking on the Fixed Mapping button brings you to the Fixed Mapping page. On this page you can set your DHCP server to always assign the same IP address to a computer connected to the Router. Otherwise the IP address assigned by the DHCP server could change over time. Fixed Mapping allows you to assign the same IP address to your computer every time. This is important if you are setting up a DMZ, Virtual Server, or Port Forwarding rule to be used with online gaming.

To setup Fixed Mapping select the computer you wish to use the same IP address from the DHCP Clients drop down list. Select 1 from the ID drop down list and click the Copy to button to copy the MAC address into the table. Now enter the IP address that you want the computer to always be assigned and check the Enable box. This assigned "fixed" address should be outside of the current DHCP pool. The default pool is 100-200. So any fixed IP outside of this range should work fine and avoid any possibility of the router assigning a specified "fixed" address to another LAN host.

Click Save and now the computer you selected will always be assigned the same IP address.

The Wireless Settings Page

You can use the Wireless Settings page to configure your wireless LAN setup. If you want to change the default values, refer to the descriptions below for each item.

Security

Select from the following options:

- WPA2/WPA (Recommended): Most users should select the WPA2/WPA option. When you select this option, the Security Key field appears.

- Security Key: Please input 8 to 63 characters as your Security key.

- WEP: You must select this option if you have devices on your network that only support WEP. Otherwise we recommend WPA2/WPA. (Devices that only support WEP include older handheld game consoles, older MAC notebooks, and very old Windows notebooks.)

Field Entry

Encryption WEP Key 1, 2, 3, 4

You can choose to either use WEP 128 bit encryption or WEP 64 bit encryption. The difference is 128 bit is more secure and 64 bit is faster. We recommend selecting 64 bit.In ASCII format, if you chose a 64-bit key length, 5 ASCII characters are required. Write the 5-ASCII-character key in the space below for future reference, and then enter it in the Key 1 box.____In ASCII format, if you chose a 128-bit key length, 13 ASCII characters are required. Write the 13-ASCII-character key in the space below for future reference, and then enter it in the Key 1 box.____

- None (the default): Select this if you don't plan to use wireless security or if all the devices on your network support WPS (WiFi® Protected Setup) and you wish to use WPS to set up wireless security. We

recommend using the Setup Wizard with the options above to set up security for your Wireless-N 4-port Router. However, if you choose to use WPS, please refer to Appendix C: Setting up Your Network Using WPS.

Click Save to save changes.

Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page.

Wireless Client List: Click to view all clients connected to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

The Change Password Page

You can use this page to change your login password. To view or change configuration settings, you must enter a password. Your Router has a default password (admin) that was set by the factory and that you used to access the Configuration Manager initially. To safeguard your configuration, particularly if you make changes, we recommend that you change the login password.

Note: If you forget the new password, you won't have access to the Configuration Manager and will need to restore the device to its factory settings thus losing any changes you made to your Router's configuration. To avoid this problem, we recommend that you write the new password and save it in a convenient location.

Configuring Forwarding Rules

If you are using your Router for gaming, you may need to make changes to the Router's firewall setting for the game to work. This is done by setting up a DMZ or virtual server, or using port triggering so that the Router's firewall won't block the other players from your system during your gaming. The main difference between the three methods is the amount of access someone has to your system.

A virtual server will allow access to your computer or gaming station on certain ports. A port is a channel that is used by applications (such as games) for communication. For example, the directions for the game you want to play over the Internet might tell you to open up port 6000.

Port triggering works by sensing when data is sent out on the predetermined outgoing port and then automatically opening up the corresponding incoming port(s). It will automatically forward the traffic on the incoming port to the computer that accessed the outgoing port. If your game uses one port to send outgoing data and a different port (or ports) for incoming data, you may want to use port triggering. The advantage of port triggering is that it is more secure than setting up a virtual server since the incoming port is only open when you are using it, and since it tracks which computer sent the outgoing data. port triggering can also be easier to set up because you do not need to know the IP address of your gaming station. The disadvantage of port triggering is that only 1 host can be accessing the port at one time, so if you have two computers or game stations playing the same game on your network you will need to use a virtual server or DMZ.

A DMZ differs from a virtual server in that it allows access on all ports of the computer. Because of this, DMZ's arc less secure and should be used with caution on your computer. However DMZ's work well with your gaming stations since security is not as much of an issue for gaming stations as it is for computers.

Some games support UPnP. If your game supports UPnP then you do not need to set any forwarding rule since UPnP will automatically set up the Router to work with the game.

You can use the Forwarding Rules page to configure the options mentioned above, for allowing access to devices behind your Router.

The Virtual Server Page

You can use the Virtual Server page to configure a virtual server.

Because your Router's NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your network, all computers behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you want, you can make some of them accessible by enabling Virtual Server mapping.

A virtual server will allow access to your computer on certain ports. A port is like a channel that is used by applications (such as games) to communicate on. For example, the directions for the game you want to play over the Internet might tell you to open port 6000 on the router.

Server IP

This is the IP Address of the computer or gaming device that you want to allow access to. If you do not know the IP address you can look it up by selecting Basic Settings > LAN Setup, then clicking on Client List. To make this virtual server permanent, then you should set up a fixed mapping to your computer or gaming device on the LAN Setup page. Doing this ensures that your computer will keep the same IP address.

Service Port

This is the port number you want to allow access to your computer on.

Private Port

Usually the private port should be set to the same port as the service port. However if you want to hide the port you are using internally from the outside world you may set a private port. Data will come in over the service port and the Router will switch the port used by the data to the private port. Computers on your network will see the data on the private port but users outside your firewall will see the data on the service port.

Protocol

Select UDP, TCP, or Both depending on what type of protocol your game or application uses.

Enable

Click to enable the Virtual Server.

Schedule Rule#

You can enable your virtual server for certain periods of time by assigning it a Rule #. You must first set up the appropriate Scheduling Rule. See The Schedule Rule and Schedule Rule Setting Pages on page 71 for more information.

For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.2.5, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.2.6, and a game at 192.168.2.7, then you need, at minimum, to specify the following mapping.

ID	Server IP	Service Port	Private Port	Enable
1	192.168.2.5	21	21	Yes
2	192.168.2.6	80	80	Yes
3	192.168.2.7	5000	5000	Yes

The Port Triggering Page

Port triggering opens incoming ports when your computer is using a specified outgoing port for specific traffic. This provides a way for you to automate setting up a Virtual Server with some applications. You can use the Port Triggering page to configure which packets are allowed access.

Trigger

The outbound port number used by the application.

Incoming Ports

When the outbound trigger packet is detected, the router opens the specified inbound ports and the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall.

Enable

Enables access for the specified application.

Click Save to store your selection or Undo to remove the entry.

The Miscellaneous Page

The Miscellaneous Page lets you set up and enable a DMZ Host on your network, and enable UPnP settings for software and devices. In this way, specific ports can open for incoming traffic that must pass through your firewall. You can also enable IGMP on this page in the unlikely event that your service provider is using it.

IP Address of DMZ Host

A DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of the router's firewall. It allows a computer or gaming system to be exposed to unrestricted two-way communication for Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. Use caution when using a DMZ because your router's firewall no longer protects the computer that is set up as a DMZ.

Super DMZ (IP Passthrough)

The LAN host specified by a Super DMZ will acquire the router's WAN IP and communicate using this IP. There is no NAT translation of the IP address from this one computer. All other LAN hosts will keep their LAN addresses and use NAT translation. Also, any unsolicited incoming packets will be forwarded to this "Super DMZ". The difference between a Super DMZ and a normal DMZ is the Super DMZ's LAN host will use the router's WAN IP address.

UPnP setting

This feature is enabled by default. Games and applications that are UPnP compatible will automatically open ports for you on your Router.

Xbox® Support

Enabled by default. Allows connection to an Xbox.

Configuring Security Settings

The Security Settings page lists six configuration menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center.

Packet Filters Page

Packet Filtering allows you to control what packets are allowed to pass through the Router. Outbound Packet filters control outbound packets and Inbound Filtering controls packets coming from the Internet. Inbound Filters applies only to packets going to a Virtual Server, DMZ, or Super DMZ. Most users will not need to setup Packet Filtering.

When you click on Packet Filters from the left-side menu, it takes you to the Outbound Packet Filtering page. If you need to set up an Inbound Filter, click on Inbound Filter button at the bottom of the page.

Filtering Policies

You can select one of the two filtering policies. You can either allow or deny data that matches the filtering rule to pass.

Filtering Rules

You can specify eight rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following:

Source IP address

Destination IP address

Destination Port

Schedule Rule#

For the Source or Destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1). An empty field implies any IP address.

For Destination Port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. Leaving this empty implies that all port addresses apply.

Each Rule can be enabled or disabled individually.

You can use packet filters with scheduling rules for more access control flexibility.

The Domain Filters Page

You can use the Domain Filters page to enable or deny user access to specified URLs. Domain filtering and URL Blocking perform similar functions. The major difference between Domain Filtering and URL Blocking is that Domain Filtering filters an entire Domain (.com, .org) where URL Blocking will block specific WEB sites based on a single word or an entire URL and everything in between. In other words, Domain Filtering can block a specific web site, whereas URL Blocking can block hundreds of web sites by specifying a keyword.

Domain Filter

Click Enable to prevent users behind this device from accessing specific URLs.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting Tips

The following are some problems you may experience and some possible solutions to remedy the situation.

Problem

After connecting the Wireless-N 4-port Router. to a computer, the connected Ethernet (LAN) port light does not blink.

Solution

• Check that the Router's power cube is plugged into a working wall outlet and into the Router. The Router's Status light should be on and blinking.
  • Make sure the PC is ON.
• Make sure the Ethernet cable is plugged in properly into the PC and into the Router's Ethernet. Try replacing the Ethernet cable with another cable.
• Check that the PC's NIC (Ethernet) adapter is enabled and working properly. (Refer to your PC's documentation for details.)

Problem

I followed the instructions for connecting the Wireless-N 4-port Router hardware and entered http://192.168.2.1 in my web browser's address bar, but I cannot access the Wireless-N 4-port Router (the Status page does not appear).

Solution

• Verify that power is on to the unit and that the Ethernet cable is plugged into your Router and your computer's Ethernet (LAN) port.
• Manually reset the Wireless-N 4-port Router. Insert a paper clip into the RESET opening on the back panel, then press and hold down for 5 seconds. Then power off your computer and power it back on. After you've done that, re-enter http://192.168.2.1 in your web browser's address bar.
  Note: If you still cannot access the Wireless-N 4-port Router, follow the instructions in Appendix B to check the computer's TCP/IP settings.

Problem

I am unable to connect to the Internet (and/or used the Setup Wizard to set up the Router and see the message “Connection to Internet failed”).

Solution

There are several issues that could cause this problem. Check these items:

• If you used the Setup Wizard and the connection to the Internet failed try opening a browser and going to a website. If this works then your setup is OK.
• Verify that the STATUS light on the Router is on and blinking. If it is off, check that the Router is plugged into a working wall outlet. If the light does not turn on, make sure there is power going to the outlet you are using. If the unit still doesn't work contact Zoom Technical Support. See Appendix D for contact information.
• If you are using a wireless device, try connecting a computer directly to one of the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Ethernet (LAN) ports. If a computer directly connected to the Wireless-N 4-port Router works, then the problem is with your wireless connections. See the wireless troubleshooting tip.
• If you are using the Router in Ethernet Client Mode verify that the Ethernet cable is plugged into the Router's WAN port (not its LAN port).
• If you cannot access the Internet with a computer directly connected to one of the Wireless-N 4-port Router's Ethernet (LAN) ports, check your Ethernet connection. Most computers have a power light next to the Ethernet jack to indicate the Ethernet cable is properly connected. Verify that this light is on and that the Ethernet light on the front of the Wireless-N 4-port Router is on. If the Ethernet light is off on either the Wireless-N 4-port Router or on the computer, verify that the cable is properly pushed in. If the light still doesn't turn on, you should try another Ethernet cable.
• Try turning your computer off and then on. This ensures that your computer gets a correct IP address from the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

Problem

My computer/devices are not connecting wirelessly to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

Solution

Try the following:

- Verify that a "wired" computer can access the Internet.

If it cannot, try the steps outlined in the previous troubleshooting tip.

If the wired computer can access the Internet, reboot the devices(s) on your wireless network (this will allow for the computers to release and renew their IP addresses) and try to access the Internet again.

If you still cannot connect to the Internet wirelessly, continue below.

You should also verify that Zoom (or whatever you changed the SSID/network name to) is selected as the wireless network. If it is not, then you are connected to the wrong network. To verify the network, follow the instructions in Chapter 6, Connecting Wireless Devices to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

• Check your wireless security settings on your Wireless-N 4-port Router and verify that your device is using the same settings.
• Check the signal strength of your wireless connection. Most wireless adapters have some type of signal strength meter that shows how strong your wireless signal is. Windows users, click the Wireless icon in your system tray to check signal strength. If your signal strength is not strong enough, try the following:

➢ Reorient the receiving antenna on your Wireless-N 4-port Router.
➢ Move the Wireless-N 4-port Router to another area.
➢ Move the device trying to access the Wireless-N 4-port Router to a different location, ideally closer to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

- Change the wireless channel. In the unlikely event that you experience performance issues with your wireless network, you may want to set your network up on a channel that's different from the factory-set channel of 10. To do that, follow these steps:

1 In the Web browser address bar, type the Router's default IP address, http://192.168.2.1 and then click Enter.
2 In the System Password field, type admin and then click Login.
3 When the ADMINISTRATOR'S Main Menu opens, click Advanced on the Toolbar.
4 On the Basic Settings page, click Wireless on the left-side menu to open the Wireless page.
5 On the Wireless page, from the Channel drop-down menu, select a channel number for your network that is not being used by another network. If possible, try to maintain a 5-channel difference between your network and other nearby networks. You may want to try, for example, channel 1 or 6.
6 nBethareltandick/Slave/Application matching cha wirelessly to the Wireless-N 4-port Router will automatically switch to the new channel.

- If you are using a computer with a wireless network card installed, access the network card's software and verify that it is connected to the Zoom network (or whatever you changed the SSID/network name to) and that the signal strength is adequate. Refer to the documentation that came with the network card if you need help doing this.

- Refer to the documentation provided with your network device or contact its manufacturer for assistance.

Appendix B: TCP/IP Network Settings

If you are using a Mac computer, you must ensure that your computer's TCP/IP network settings are configured properly. Otherwise, you will not be able to connect to the Internet.

Note: If you are using a Windows computer, you do not have to configure the TCP/IP settings if you are using DHCP because your Windows computer will automatically configure them for you. If you are not using DHCP, you will need to set up the TCP/IP settings for your Windows computer.

Appendix C: Setting up Your Network Using WPS

If all the wireless devices you plan to connect to your network support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can use WPS to connect and secure your devices in one step. To use WPS follow the instructions below.

Note: WPS configures one client device at a time. Please repeat the configuration method for each client on your wireless network that supports WPS security.

Configuration Methods

WPS offers three configuration methods. Choose the method that is compatible with the hardware and software options available on your “client device,” which is the device you’re connecting wirelessly to the Wireless-N 4-port Router.

Method One

Use this method if your client device has a WPS button. This button can be either a physical button on the unit or a software button in its application.

1 Press the WPS button on your Wireless-N 4-port Router and hold it in for three (3) seconds. The Wireless light starts blinking rapidly. (Note: Wireless must be disabled for the WPS button to work. To turn on wireless using the button on the Router, press the Wireless button on the Router and hold it for 5 seconds. Then press the same button which is also the WPS button as stated above.)

Important! The Registrar (the device configuring the WLAN) goes into the WPS mode and the Enrollee (the device joining the WLAN) then looks for it. You should always start the Registrar first. By default your Wireless-N 4-port Router is configured as a Registrar.

2 Click or press the WPS button on the client device.

Important! You must do this within two minutes after placing he Router into WPS discovery mode.

3 Refer to your client device's documentation for further instructions, if necessary.

Method Two

Use this method if your client device already has a WPS PIN number. The client is the Enrollee.

1 If you haven't already done so, open a Web browser and type http://192.168.2.1 in the address bar.

a When the Configuration Manager launches, log in as admin, then select Advanced > Basic Settings > Wireless to open the Wireless Setup page.

b Click the WPS Setup button to open the Wi-Fi Protected Setup page.

c Select Enrollee PIN from the Setup option.

d Enter the PIN number from your client device.

e Click Trigger to start the connection process on the Router. Important! You must do this within two minutes after placing the Router into WPS discovery mode.

f On the Wireless-N 4-port Router, when the program displays a message that the process succeeded, click Save to save the configuration.

Method Three

Use this method if your client device requests the Router's PIN number. The client is the Registrar. Use this method if the client(s) are to connect to multiple access points so that a client will control the configuration instead of the Router.

1 If you haven't already done so, open a Web browser and type http://192.168.2.1 in the address bar.

a When the Configuration Manager launches, log in as admin, then select Advanced > Basic Settings > Wireless to open the Wireless Setup page.

b Click the WPS Setup button.

c Select Enrollee from the Setup option.

d Click Generate New PIN to generate a new PIN number.

e Enter the Router's PIN Number into your client device. Refer to your client's documentation for further details.

Important! You must do this within two minutes after starting the Router.

Click Save to save the configuration.
