In Step 1, you will connect the Router to your cable or DSL modem and to your
home or business computers.
First, make sure that all devices you’ll be working with are powered down, includ-
ing your PCs, modem, and the Router.
A.
If you haven’t already done so, connect your cable or DSL modem to its prop-
er connection—the coaxial jack for cable (Figure A
1
), or the phone jack for DSL
(Figure A
2
). (Follow the instructions from your cable or DSL modem’s installa-
tion guide.)

B.
Using an Ethernet cable, connect the
LAN or Ethernet port of the cable or DSL
modem to the Router’s WAN port.
C.
Connect an Ethernet cable to
your PC’s Ethernet adapter.
Connect the other end of the
cable to one of the Router’s
LAN ports. Repeat this
process for every PC you wish
to connect to the Router.
Note: If your PC’s Ethernet adapter is not set up, please refer to the Ethernet
adapter’s documentation for more information.
For ease of installation, start with LAN
Port 1 on the Router, then Port 2, Port 3,
and finally Port 4.
If you are connecting more than four
PCs to the Router, you will need to con-
nect a hub or switch to the Router’s
Uplink port (if you use the Uplink port,
then you cannot use Port 4). For infor-
mation on Uplinking, please refer to the
User Guide located on the Setup Wizard
CD-ROM.
D.
Connect the power adapter to the Router’s Power port. Then, connect the
power adapter to an electrical outlet. Turn on the cable or DSL modem. Then
turn on the first PC you wish to use when configuring the Router.
Proceed to Step 2: Configure the PCs on the next page.
