I believe image explain better, sorry for the blurry image.




After applying all the settings, login to your WHR-HP-G300N and check the status.

Now, take a laptop and try to connect to SSID "Hotspot 2" as per configured in your WHR-HP-G300N Wireless Virtual Interface. If you've done the configuration and setup a DHCP server(in your modem) correctly, the laptop should be getting a DHCP IP !

Hope this tutorial helps! Have a nice day!
