Node 3 is similar to node 1 in that it has one backhaul radio and one access radio, which means it is also
capable of connecting to other MSR series routers and servicing client devices. However because it is not
directly connected to a wired network, it is called an AP node.
Configuration Summary
The following table summarizes the basic configuration settings required for each of the three nodes:

10.2 Configuring nodes with the Quick Setup Wizard
The basic software requirement for the web-interface is:
• Web Browser: Internet Explorer 5.5 and above with Javascript enabled
• Optimal Resolution:1024 X 768 and above
Accessing the Quick Setup Wizard
To log in the web interface of a MSR series router, input the router IP address and the port address, such as
111.168.15.229 for router IP, and then input http://111.168.15.229:9080 in the web browser address. A pop-up
dialog box would appear and request a username and password (see Figure 11).
On an un-configured MSR series router, it can connect a client PC to the router’s Ethernet 0 port and the
port’s default IP address is 192.168.0.1.
2
Node ID can be any integer 1 and 8191, and must be unique within a single mesh network.
3
Router ID is an IPv4 loopback address that identifies the router, and is usually the best way to connect to the
administration functions of an operational router; must be unique within a single mesh network.
4
This is the IP address and netmask of the Ethernet port 0 on the MSR series. Depending on the exact model, there
may be one or two Ethernet ports. This quick start guide only uses Ethernet port 0.
5
This is the IP address of the gateway router that the Ethernet port 0 is connected to.
6
SSID is the alphanumeric identifier of a wireless AP which clients use to connect.
7
DNS server information is needed for the clients to connect to the internet; this information is passed to the client when
the client uses the DHCP protocol to obtain an IP address from the AP on the MSR series.
8
Motrix-roaming is a service provided by the MSR series that allows wireless clients to move from the coverage area of
one AP to another without experiencing any disruption in service. For details, refer to the Configuration Guide.
