I NSTALLATION

This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router
in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, attic or garage.

B EFORE YOU B EGIN

• Please configure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your modem.
• 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 off 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 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.
• When running the Setup Wizard from the CD, make sure the computer you are running the CD from is connected to the
Internet and online or the wizard will not work. If you have disconnected any hardware, reconnect your computer back to
the modem and make sure you are online.

W IRELESS I NSTALLATION C ONSIDERATIONS

The wireless router lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating
range of your wireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other ob-
jects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materi-
als and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow
these basic guidelines:

1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the router and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling
can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceil-
ings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears
to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the
signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to
position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways.
Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets, brick,
and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security
systems), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone base is
as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.
C ONNECT TO C ABLE /DSL/S ATELLITE M ODEM

If you are connecting the router to a cable/DSL/satellite modem, please follow the steps below:
1. Place the router in an open and central location. Do not plug the power adapter into the router.
2. Unplug the modem’s power adapter. Shut down your computer.
3. Unplug the Ethernet cable (that connects your computer to your modem) from your computer and place it into the Internet
port on the router.
4. Plug an Ethernet cable into one of the four LAN ports on the router. Plug the other end into the Ethernet port on your
computer.
5. Plug in your modem. Wait for the modem to boot (about 30 seconds).
6. Plug the power adapter to the router and connect to an outlet or power strip.
7. Use the power switch to power on the router. Wait about 30 seconds for the router to boot.
8. Turn on your computer.

C ONNECT TO A NOTHER R OUTER

If you are connecting the router to another router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have to do the fol-
lowing before connecting the router to your network:
• Disable UPnP™
• Disable DHCP
• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot accept a DHCP
address from your other router.

To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:
1. Plug the power into the router and use the power switch to power up the router. Connect one of your computers to the
router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable. Make sure your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is
between 2 and 254). If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before making any changes. In
most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically in which case you will not have to do
anything to your computer.
2. Open a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the user name to
‘ admin ’ and leave the password box empty. Click Login to continue.
3. Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to con-
tinue.
4. Click Setup and then click Network Settings. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server checkbox. Click Save Settings to con-
tinue.
5. Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet mask of your network. Click Save Settings to save
your settings. Use this new IP address to access the configuration utility of the router in the future. Close the browser and
change your computer’s IP settings back to the original values as in Step 1.
6. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and reconnect your computer to your network.
7. Connect an Ethernet cable in one of the LAN ports of the router and connect it to your other router. Do not plug anything
into the Internet (WAN) port of the router.
8. You may now use the other 3 LAN ports to connect other Ethernet devices and computers. To configure your wireless
network, open a web browser and enter the IP address you assigned to the router. Refer to the Configuration and Wireless
Security sections for more information on setting up your wireless network.

Select Static IP from the drop-down menu if all the Internet port’s IP information is provided to you by your ISP. You will need
to enter in the IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS address(es) provided to you by your ISP. Each IP address
entered in the fields must be in the appropriate IP form, which are four octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not
accept the IP address if it is not in this format.
