1Product Overview
Supported Features
The WS550 450Mbps Wireless Router (WS550 for short) is a high-speed wireless router
designed for home and small office use. This chapter describes the features supported by the
WS550.
Ethernet provides rugged stability, and with the WPS button, zero configuration is required
for connections to multiple devices.
Network range allows any device in a home to be connected with a transmission rate of up to
450Mbps.
A powerful firewall is provided with a flexible network configuration and quality of service
(QoS) strategy, enabling different home devices to enjoy high-speed and high-quality
broadband services.
Smart Wi-Fi coverage
When the WS550 is connected to Huawei wireless routers and repeaters that support the smart
Wi-Fi coverage feature, wireless parameters of these devices are automatically synchronized,
which simplifies user configuration. What's more, smart Wi-Fi coverage helps wireless devices
automatically detect and connect to the wireless router or repeater with the best signal
reception.
Easy configuration and management
Access the web management page from your computer, smart phone, or tablet to easily
configure WS550. You can also install the Huawei HiLink app on your smart phone or tablet to
manage your router.
High-Speed Ethernet Connectivity
The WS550 provides WAN ports for Ethernet-enabled devices to access the Internet at high
speeds.
Routing
The WS550 supports routing. It can obtain an IP address through PPP dial-up or Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which provides simultaneous access for multiple devices.
WLAN
The WS550 supports multiple WLAN protocols, including 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz). Adopting
802.11n multiple-input multiple-output antennas (MIMO) technology, the WS550 delivers a
wireless transmission rate of up to 450Mbps with its three antennas. In addition, the WS550
supports multiple wireless encryption modes to provide a secure, reliable, and high-speed WLAN.
Bandwidth Control
The WS550 supports bandwidth control and allocates bandwidth to different computers within
your home based on Internet access requirements. Your family can then access the Internet, play
online games, and watch videos without interfering with each other.
WDS Wireless Bridging
The wireless distribution system (WDS) function in wireless bridging mode enables you to set up
wireless connections between wireless routers to implement large-scale WLAN coverage.
2
Firewall
The powerful built-in firewall effectively protects against viruses and malicious attacks.
ARP Attack Protection
You can b undle an IP address and MAC address bi-directionally, which effectively protects your
LAN from Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) attacks.
Parental Controls
Parents can control their children's computer usage by placing time limits on usage duration or
forbidding access to certain websites.
Energy-saving
Automatic switch to energy-saving state when no service is detected, Wi-Fi function enabled
and disabled as scheduled.
Ports and Buttons
No. Item Description
1 LAN1～LAN4 Connects to Ethernet devices, such as computers, set-top boxes
(STBs), and switches.

Place the WS550 on a well-ventilated even surface without exposure to direct sunlight. For the
best possible performance, take note of the following:
Make sure there are no obstacles, such as concrete or wooden walls, between the computer
and WS550.
Ensure that the computer and WS550 are far from electric appliances that generate strong
magnetic or electric fields, such as microwave ovens.

If you have subscribed to the Ethernet Broadband, you can connect the WS550 to an Ethernet
port, so that multiple computers could access the Internet.
Connecting the WS550 on a DSL Broadband Network
If you have subscribed to digital subscriber line (DSL) broadband, you can connect the WS550 to
a telephone port for Internet access, so that multiple computers could access the Internet.
5
Installing the WS550 on a Cable Broadband Network
If you have subscribed to the cable broadband network, you can connect the WS550 to an
Ethernet port of a Cable Modem, so that multiple computers could access the Internet.
Connecting a Computer or Other Devices
