Chapter 3. Quick Installation Guide
This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your AC1200 Wireless Dual
Band Router using Quick Setup Wizard within minutes.
3.1 TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the router is 192.168.0.1 and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all the default values for
description.
Connect the local PC to the Ethernet ports of the router and then you can configure the IP address
for your PC by the following method: 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
. Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
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 XP OS.
Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.0.1, and then press Enter.
 If the result displayed is similar to the Figure 3-1, it means the connection between yo
ur PC
and the router has been established well.
