As a router, the NBG460N directs traffic between your wireless network and another network such as the Internet as shown below, providing services such as content filtering, bandwidth management and a firewall. This Quick Start Guide shows you how to do the following with your NBG460N in router mode: 1 Connecting Your Hardware 2 Accessing the Web Configurator 3 Connecting to the Internet with the Wizard 4 Set Up a Wireless Network Manually or with WPS See your User's Guide on the CD in the package on how to set up the NBG460N as an AP and for more information on all features. To read the User's Guide insert the CD that came in the box into your CD-ROM drive. A screen should pop up. Navigate to the User's Guide from this screen. If a screen does not pop up, open Windows Explorer (click My Computer), click on the CD-ROM drive (usually drive D:) and navigate to it from there. 2 ENGLISH 1 Hardware Connections 2 1 4 3 Internet Do the following to make hardware connections for initial setup. 1 2 3 4 Antennas Connect each antenna to an antenna socket, ensuring the antennas are screwed in firmly and angled upwards.

See your User's Guide for information on other kinds of security. Click Next. 6 ENGLISH 3 Write down the security key that displays in the pop-up screen. Computers on the wireless network will need this security key to access the NBG460N. The security key is casesensitive so "ABCD" is not the same as "abcd". Write down the security key, Name (SSID), Security and Channel Selection for later use as the NBG460N and other devices on your wireless network must use the same settings. 4 Click OK to continue. 3.3 WAN Connection You may need to wait several minutes while the wizard attempts to detect which WAN connection type (Ethernet, PPP over Ethernet or PPTP) you are using. · If the wizard detects your connection type, follow the steps for your connection type as given below. · If the wizard cannot detect a connection type, you must select your connection type from the drop-down list box in the screen below. If you do not know what connection type to use, check with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you were given Internet access settings, type them in the following fields. Otherwise leave the default settings and click Next. 7 ENGLISH Ethernet Connection Select Ethernet as your WAN connection type and click Next to go to section 3.4. PPP over Ethernet Connection 1 Select PPP over Ethernet as your WAN connection type 2 Type a Service Name (if your ISP gave you one), User Name and Password. Click Next to go to section 3.4. PPTP Connection 1 Select PPTP as your WAN connection type. 2 Type a User Name and Password. 3 Type a PPTP Server IP Address. 4 Type a Connection ID/Name (if provided by your ISP). 5 If your ISP did not assign you a fixed PPTP IP address, select Get automatically from ISP. 6 If your ISP assigned you a fixed PPTP IP address, select Use fixed IP address to give the NBG460N a fixed, unique PPTP IP address and subnet mask. 8 ENGLISH 7 Click Next to go to section 3.4. 3.4 WAN IP Address · If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address, select Get automatically from your ISP and click Next to go to section 3.5. · If your ISP gave you a fixed IP address: 1 Select Use fixed IP address provided by your ISP.

Otherwise leave the default settings and click Next. 3.5 WAN MAC Address A MAC address is a number which uniquely identifies a device on any network. Set the WAN port's MAC address by either using your device's factory assigned default MAC address or cloning the MAC address of a computer on your LAN. By default, the NBG460N uses the factory assigned MAC address to identify itself on the WAN. 9 ENGLISH · Select Factory Default to use the factory-assigned, default MAC address. · Select Clone the Computer's MAC Address to clone the MAC address from a computer on your LAN. Type the IP address of the computer with the MAC address you are cloning. It is advisable to clone the MAC address from a computer on your LAN even if your ISP does not presently require MAC address authentication. · Select Set WAN MAC Address if you know the MAC address you want to use. 3.6 Bandwidth Management Select Enable BM for all traffic automatically to have the NBG460N prioritize data traffic according to the its use.

Then turn the NBG460N off, wait for a few seconds and turn it back on. If this doesn't work run the wizard again, making sure you type the information correctly. Also, if you are using a new Internet account, contact your ISP to make sure it is active. See Troubleshooting in the User's Guide for more suggestions. 4 Set Up a Wireless Network You can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to add wireless devices to your wireless network. The other wireless devices must also support WPS. If your wireless devices display the WPS logo as shown, go to section 4.1 to use WPS to set up your wireless network. If your wireless devices do not display the WPS logo, go to section 4.2 to manually set up a wireless network. 4.1 Set up Your Wireless Network with WPS Follow these steps to set up your wireless network using WPS. 1 Place a WPS-enabled device within range of the NBG460N. 11 ENGLISH 2 Press the WPS button on both devices. It doesn't matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button within two minutes of pressing the first one. 2 minutes Your NBG460N has a WPS button located on its housing, as well as a WPS button available in the web configurator used to manage the NBG460N. Other WPS-enabled devices should have at least one similar WPS button. 3 The WPS LED ( ) on the NBG460N blinks for a few seconds, then shines steadily. 4 Check if your devices are connected by trying to connect to the Internet using the device you connected to the NBG460N. If you can do this, then your WPS connection is successful. 5 To add another WPS enabled device to your wireless network, press the WPS buttons on your NBG460N and your next WPS-enabled device. Congratulations! You are now ready to connect to the Internet wirelessly through your NBG460N. 12 ENGLISH 4.2 Set up a Wireless Network Manually You can now connect wirelessly to your NBG460N from your computer and access the Internet. You will need the Network Name (SSID) and also the Security Key (Pre-Shared Key) if you set up security in the previous section.
