Section 2 - Installation

Before You Begin

Installation

• Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, attic, or garage.

• Congure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your Internet connection. Verify that it is connected to

the Internet before connecting additional devices.

• If your ISP provided you with a modem/router combo, you will need to set it to “bridge” mode so the router can work properly. Please

contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or refer to the user manual for your modem/router device.

• You can only use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router, then you must

turn o your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on the router, and then turn the

modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change connection types (USB to Ethernet).

• If connecting to a DSL modem, make sure to have your DSL service information provided by your Internet Service Provider handy.

This information is likely to include your DSL account's username and password. Your ISP may also supply you with additional WAN

conguration settings which might be necessary to establish a connection.

• If you are connecting a considerable amount of networking equipment, it may be a good idea to take the time to label each cable

or take a picture of your existing setup before making any changes.

• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as WinPoET, BroadJump,

or EnterNet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.
