Manually Setting Up Your Internet Connection
You need to prepare and have available the following before you can manually set up your router:
• Active Internet service.
• The Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration information for your account.
– ISP login name and password
– ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) addresses
– Fixed or static IP address
• Your computer must be set up to use DHCP to get its TCP/IP configuration from the modem
router. This is usually the case. For help with DHCP, see the documentation that came with
your computer, or click the link to the online document
“TCP/IP Networking Basics” in
Appendix B .
Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If
you cannot locate this information, you can ask your ISP to provide it.
