A

Before you begin, make sure 

that all of your hardware is 

powered off, including the 

Router, PCs, hubs, switches, 

and cable or DSL modem.

B

Connect one end of an Ether-

net network cable to one of 

the numbered ports on the 

front of the Router. Connect 

the other end to an Ethernet 

port on a network device, e.g., 

a PC, print server, hub, or 

switch.

Repeat this step to connect 

more PCs or other network 

devices to the Router.

C

Connect your cable or DSL 

modem’s Ethernet cable to 

the Router’s Internet port. 

D

Power on the cable or DSL 

modem and the other network 

device if using one.

Connect the Router

In Step 2, you will need the setup 

instructions provided by your Inter-

net Service Provider (ISP). If you do 

not have this information, then con-

tact your ISP before proceeding.

The instructions from your ISP tell you 

how to set up your PC for Internet 

access. Because you are now using 

the Router to share Internet access 

among several computers, you will 

use the setup information to config-

ure the Router instead of your PC.

A

Open your PC’s web browser. 

Enter http://192.168.1.1 (the 

Router’s default local IP 

address) in the web browser’s 

Address

 field. Then press the 

Enter key.

B

A screen will appear and ask 

you for a User Name and Pass-

word. Enter admin (the default) 

in the the 

User Name and Pass-

word

 fields. Then click the OK 

button.

Connect the included AC 

power cable to the Router’s 

Power port on the back of the 

Router, as shown in Figure E, 

and then plug the other end of 

the power cable into an elec-

trical outlet.

The System LED on the front 

panel will light up as soon as 

the power adapter is con-

nected properly.

 

NOTE:

: Make sure your PC’s Ethernet 

adapter is set to 

obtain an IP address 

automatically

. For more information, 

refer to Windows Help.
