Basic Router Setup
Creating a Home Network
What is a network?
A network is a group of computers or devices that can communicate with each other. A
home network of more than one computer or device also typically includes Internet
access, which requires a router.
A typical home network may include multiple computers, a media player/server, a
printer, a modem, and a router. A large home network may also have a switch,
additional routers, access points, and many Internet-capable media devices such as TVs,
game consoles, and web cameras.
•Modem – Connects a computer or router to the Internet or ISP (Internet
Service Provider).
•Router – Connects your wireless and wired network devices to each other and
to the modem.
•Switch – Allows you to connect several wired network devices to your home
network. Your router has a built-in network switch (the LAN port 1-4). If you
have more wired network devices than available Ethernet ports on your router,
you will need an additional switch to add more wired connections.
How to set up a home network
1. For a network that includes Internet access, you’ll need:
•Computers/devices with an Ethernet port (also called network port) or wireless
networking capabilities
•A modem and Internet service to your home, provided by your ISP (modem
typically supplied by your ISP)
•A router to connect your computers and devices and also connects to the
modem.
2. Make sure that your modem is working. Your ISP can help you set up your modem
and verify that it’s working correctly.
3. Set up your router. See “How to setup your router” below.
4. To connect additional wired computers or wired network devices to your network,
see “Connect additional wired devices to your network” on page 12.

Wireless Networking and Security
How to choose the type of security for your wireless network
There are a few different wireless security types supported in wireless networking
each having its own characteristics which may be more suitable for your wireless
network taking into consideration compatibility, performance, as well as the security
strength along with using older wireless networking hardware (also called legacy
hardware).
It is strongly recommended to enable wireless security to prevent unwanted users
from accessing your network and network resources (personal documents, media, etc.).
In general, it is recommended that you choose the security type with the highest
strength and performance supported by the wireless computers and devices in your
network. Please review the security types to determine which one you should use for
your network.
•WEP: Legacy encryption method supported by most 802.11b/g hardware.
Older hardware may only support up to WEP encryption.
•WPA: Legacy encryption method supported in most 802.11g hardware.
•WPA2: Currently the most secure method of wireless security and required for
802.11n performance.
Note: Check the specifications of your wireless network adapters and wireless appliances
to verify the highest level of encryption supported.
Below is brief comparison chart of the wireless security types and the recommended
configuration depending on which type you choose for your wireless network.
