Before you begin
Consider your connection type
How will you use your USR5430? If you want to game online through the Internet so you can play
anyone around the world, you’ll want to set up your USR5430 in Client Mode. You can also use the
USR5430 in Client Mode as an Ethernet bridge to connect any Ethernet device such as a computer,
network printer, or digital video recorder (DVR) to a wireless network. If you want to play your friend
in the same house or building and you each have a gaming console of the same brand (Xbox-to-
Xbox, Playstation-to-Playstation, or other gaming consoles), you will need to set up your USR5430 in
Ad Hoc Mode. Select one of the following and follow the installation steps accordingly.
