Configuring Basic Settings 4-1
Configuring Basic Settings
This chapter guides you through the steps required to access your Wireless AP
Router’s configuration page, and thereafter, to configure its basic settings.
Please note that manually configuring your Wireless AP Router’s settings is not a
prerequisite for proper operation in all scenarios. If you connect to the Internet
using a cable modem, for example, it is very likely that you will be able to access
the Internet from any wired or wireless client connected to your Wireless AP
Router, immediately after it has been properly set up (see Chapter 3, “Setting Up
Your Wireless AP Router”).
You should therefore only attempt to configure your Wireless AP Router’s settings
if:
• you are unable to access the Internet from a computer connected (via wire or
wirelessly) to your Wireless AP Router; or
• you would like to enable your Wireless AP Router’s security features.
If you are already able to access the Internet from a client, proceed to "Accessing
the configuration page" on page 4-5
.
The arrangement of
information in this chapter
is designed to benefit
users who are new to
networking.
If you are an experienced
user, proceed directly to
"Accessing the
configuration page" on
page 4-5 and
subsequently to
"Configuring Internet
connection settings" on
page 4-8 to learn more
about the configuration
options available for each
protocol.
