your cable modem in order to use the Router. Connect your
cable connection to the cable modem, insert the setup
CD into your computer, and then follow the on-screen
instructions.
The computer cannot connect wirelessly to the network.
Make sure the wireless network name or SSID is the same
on both the computer and the Router. If you have enabled
wireless security, then make sure the same security
method and key are used by both the computer and the
Router.

, in the
Address
field. Then press

router with the IP address of 192.168.15.1, then
the Router will automatically assume a new
default IP address,

.

screen.) Then

You cannot configure the settings for the second wireless
