Note:

(1), after connecting to Huawei WS318 router according to the appeal, the computer cannot access the Internet for the time being; when the router is successfully connected to the Internet, the computer can access the Internet automatically.

(2), Many novice users have doubts. After connecting to the router according to the appeal, the computer cannot access the Internet. How can they set up the router? Let me talk about it here: When setting up a router, you don’t need a computer to access the Internet. As long as the computer is connected to any of the routers LAN1, LAN2, LAN3, and LAN4, the computer can enter the router settings interface and set the router to connect to the network. This involves the principle of LAN communication. Don’t ask why, just follow the tutorial.

(3), In addition, please make sure to connect to the computer-router; the router-mao (lightmao) network cable can be used normally; if there is a problem with the network cable, it may cause the problem of not being able to log in to the settings interface of Huawei WS318, or the problem of not being able to access the Internet after setting up.

(4), please strictly follow the method introduced above to connect to your Huawei WS318 wireless router; do not be clever and change the connection method.

Step 2: Set the computer IP address

Before setting up the Huawei WS318 router to connect to the Internet, you need to set the computer IP address to: Automatically obtain (dynamic IP), as shown in the figure below.

Step 3: Set up Huawei WS318 router to access the Internet

, open the browser in the computer, enter: 192.168.3.1 in the address bar and press Enter on the keyboard.

. In the pop-up login window, enter the password: admin, and then click "Login"

Note:

The default login password of Huawei WS318 router is: admin, you can view it in the bottom nameplate, as shown in the figure below

. Select the Internet access method

If your Huawei WS318 router is setting for the first time, after logging in to the settings page, the following page will automatically pop up, and choose the Internet access method.

If this WS318 router has been set before, the interface shown in the figure below will appear after logging in. At this time, you need to click the "Enter Settings Wizard" option.

You can see that there are 4 options: automatic detection of Internet access, dial-up Internet access, no need to enter an account and password, and enter an Internet access account and password on the computer; which one is selected? This problem is determined by the user's broadband type or the installation environment of the user's router. Let me tell you how to make a choice.

(1), automatic detection of Internet access methods

means that the router automatically chooses an Internet access method. However, sometimes the Internet access method detected by the router is inaccurate, which will cause the Internet access method to be unable to access. Therefore, it is not recommended that you choose the option: Automatically detect the Internet access method.

(2), dial-up Internet access

If you have completed broadband broadband service, the broadband operator provides you with a broadband account and broadband password, and when you do not use the router to access the Internet, you need to use a "broadband connection" (or a similar dial-up program) on your computer to fill in your broadband account and password to dial-up Internet access.

Then when setting up Huawei WS318 router to access the Internet, you should choose: dial-up Internet access - "Internet account" to fill in: broadband account - "Internet password" to fill in: broadband password - click "Next".

(3), do not need to enter the Internet account and password

After handling broadband service, you can connect the broadband network cable to the computer without using a router.

Then when setting up a Huawei WS318 router to access the Internet, you should choose: no need for an Internet account and password - click "Next"

(4), enter the Internet account and password in the computer

. This method is almost useless, so you can ignore this option.

. "Network connection is successful" - click "Next"

. Set up a wireless network: Set your own "WiFi name" and "WiFi password" - click "Save".

Step 4: Check whether the settings are successful

Click "Internet" - "Internet Settings" - Check "Connection Status" under the "Internet Status" option on the right. If it is displayed: Connected, it means that Huawei WS318 router has successfully connected to the Internet and can access the Internet normally.

Huawei WS318 router settings are easy to error:

, Huawei WS318 router connection error. Remember that the connection principle of the router is: the WAN port connects to broadband cat, optical cat, and broadband network cable; the LAN1/LAN2/LAN3/LAN4 ports are used to connect to computers.

. The Internet method is selected incorrectly. The Internet access method in the router is actually the type of broadband service you handle yourself. The above article of Wutu.com has already introduced how to determine the type of broadband; if you still don’t know your broadband type, you can call the broadband operator’s customer service number and consult customer service.

. The Internet access method is to fill in the broadband account and broadband password when dialing up. The broadband account and broadband password are provided by your broadband operator. You must fill in it correctly before the router can connect to the Internet.
