The following scenario describes the product installation for use in Router mode. In order to know other scenarios for use in other modes, such as Repeater, Wireless client, among others, please refer to topic 4.2. Configuration in other product usage scenarios.
Note: If you wish to access your router via Wi-Fi instead of via network cable, connect to the Wi-Fi network under the name INTELBRAS after performing steps 1 and 2.
On your computer, open your web browser (we recommend using the most current versions of Google Chrome ®, Mozilla Firefox ® or Microsoft Edge ® ) and go to http://10.0.0.1 as shown in the following image. This procedure should be performed whenever you need to change any configuration of your router.
When accessing the RF 301K web page address, you will be directed to the installation wizard, as the following image.
It will help you configure Internet access, and quickly and easily create your own Wi-Fi network.
To configure your router, follow the instructions in the installation wizard.
After this procedure, your internet connection will be recognized automatically. Please wait and follow the guidelines described in the installation wizard. You can also choose, manually, the type of internet connection:
The router will apply the settings and then you will be directed to the main page of the router (status page).
Important: if you are accessing RF 301K via Wi-Fi, wait until it applies the settings and then connects to your new network, which was created in the previous steps.
At this point, your router will already be configured. Test your connection to the Wi-Fi network and the internet. If there are any problems, follow the step-by-step configuration again. If the problem persists, please contact our support.
When entering the configuration page for the first time, RF 301K will prompt you for a password to access the product configuration web interface. For further security, we recommend entering a password in the field Password and clicking on Save password.
Next, we will describe other RF 301K use scenarios, with their respective settings. For these other modes, you will always use the advanced router settings, accessible only after performing the configuration via the installation wizard described in item 4.1. Configuração via assistente de instalação.
Wireless repeater
If you already have a Wi-Fi network in your home but want to extend your coverage, you can use your RF 301K as a signal repeater.
See the following sample image:
Note that the router’s coverage area does not cover the entire residence, so an RF 301K is used as a Wi-Fi repeater to solve this problem. It is important to note that in this scenario, depending on the room you are in when connecting a device (a laptop or smartphone, for example) to the Wi-Fi network it may connect either to the router or the repeater.
Examples:
To perform the configuration this way, in the Advanced settings of the web interface of the configuration of the router go to the menu Operation ode.
To configure the product as a wireless repeater for an existing Wi-Fi network, do the following:
Attention: after finishing the configuration of the Repeater mode, RF 301K will not repeat exactly the same Wi-Fi network name and password that you have configured, i.e., it will be the same values that were already configured via the installation wizard or menu Wi-Fi Network Configuration. You can change these values if you wish, by accessing the RF 301K web interface again and setting the desired values in the menu Wi-Fi Network Configuration.
Wireless client
If you have a Wi-Fi network and wish to create another separate network connected to your main network via a wireless connection, you can use the function Wireless client. In this mode of operation, you will not need to connect the network cable to the port WAN of RF 301K. The product will connect via Wi-Fi to an existing network.
See the following sample image:
Attention: in this scenario, the Main network and the Client network will be on different IP addresses. If the Main network has the same address range as RF 301KLAN, the conflict will occur. RF 301K is prepared to recognize this conflict and change its LAN address if necessary. To do so, follow the web interface guidelines if this occurs. The configuration of this operation mode is available in the menu Operation Mode of the RF 301K web interface.
To configure the product as a wireless Client of an existing Wi-Fi network, follow the procedure:
Attention: after finishing configuring the Repeater mode, RF 301K will not repeat exactly the same Wi-Fi network name and password that you have configured in the repeater, that is, the access to the Wi-Fi network will be done with a name and password previously configured via the installation wizard or the menu Wi-Fi Network Configuration of the RF 301K. You can change these values if you wish, by accessing the RF 301K web interface again and setting the desired values in the menu Wi-Fi Network Configuration.
Access point
If used in operation mode Access point, the product will not perform routing, but will only serve to provide Wi-Fi and cable access to an existing network. In this usage scenario, the WAN port of the product will start functioning as a LAN port.
