Configuring a wireless router
For help in setting up a WLAN, see the information provided by your router manufacturer or your ISP.
The Windows operating system also provides tools to help you set up a new wireless network. To use
the Windows tools to set up your network, select
Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet >
Network and Sharing Center > Set up a new connection or network > Set up a new network .
Then follow the on-screen instructions.
NOTE: It is recommended that you initially connect your new wireless computer to the router by
using the network cable provided with the router. When the computer successfully connects to the
Internet, you can disconnect the cable, and then access the Internet through your wireless network.
Protecting your WLAN
When you set up your WLAN, always turn on security features to protect your network from
unauthorized access.
