How do I connect my wireless devices to the DIR-842 router?
1. Open your wireless network utility that displays available wireless networks.
2. Select the Wi-Fi Network name you assigned in the wizard and connect.
Note:
If you did not run the setup wizard or you reset the router to its default
settings, refer to the Wi-Fi Configuration Card included for the default Wi-Fi
Network Name and Wi-Fi Password.

Note:
Some devices may require you to log in to a utility to start the WPS process.
Refer to the user manual of the device you want to connect to the router if you do
not know how to start the WPS process.
How do I change the wireless settings on the DIR-842 router?
