Connecting the Router
There are many variables involved when connecting the Router, depending
on the type of Internet service available. The figure below shows the
possible connections available for the Router.
Connecting a Computer to the Router
To connect a computer to the Router to access the Router’s graphical
user interface (GUI):
1. Get the Router and black Power cord from the box.
2. Plug the black Power cord in the black port on the back of the Router
and then into a power outlet.
3. Plug the yellow Ethernet cable from the box into one of the four yellow
Ethernet ports on the back of the Router.
4. Make sure the computer is powered on, then plug the other end of the
yellow Ethernet cable into an Ethernet port on the computer.
Introduction
5. Make sure that the LED on the LAN port into which the Ethernet cable
is plugged glows steadily green. This may take a few moments.
6. The computer should either be configured with a statically defined IP
address and DNS address, or instructed to automatically obtain an
IP address using the Network DHCP server. The Router is set up, by
default, with an active DHCP server, and it is recommended to leave
this setting as is.
