For an Internet connection, plug a straight-through cable into the WAN port on the
router and the other end into the Ethernet jack on the DSL or cable modem.
Configuring your router
After you have named your computers and set up TCP/IP on them, you can configure your
router using your Web browser. For these instructions, we assume that you are using the
router to connect your network to a high-speed Broadband Internet connection through
an Internet service provider (ISP) and that you are configuring it as a DHCP server.
To configure the Linksys EtherFast Cable/DSL router:

From one of the computers connected to the network, open your Web browser, type

in the browser’s address box, then press E

When prompted for a username and password, leave the username box empty and
type
admin
in the password box, then click
OK
. The Setup page opens.

Enter the following values in the appropriate fields:
■
Router Name
and
Domain Name
- Check with your ISP to see if entries are required
in these fields and, if so, what entries are required. Normally, leaving the fields
blank will work.

on, click
