Reference Manual for the RangeMax 240 Wireless Router WPNT834

Using the Smart Setup Wizard

You can use the Smart Setup Wizard to assist with manual configuration or to verify the Internet connection. The Smart Setup Wizard is not the same as the Smart Wizard configuration assistant (as illustrated in Figure 3-1) that only appears when the router is in its factory default state. After you configure the wireless router, the Smart Wizard configuration assistant will not appear again.

To use the Smart Setup Wizard to assist with manual configuration or to verify the Internet connection settings, follow this procedure:

1.Connect to the wireless router by typing http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field of your browser, then click Enter.

2.For security reasons, the router has its own user name and password. When prompted, enter admin for the router user name and password for the router password, both in lower case letters. To change the password, see “Changing the Administrator Password” on page 6-9.

Note: The router user name and password are not the same as any user name or password you may use to log in to your Internet connection.

Once you have entered your user name and password, your Web browser should find the WPNT834 router and display the home page as shown in Figure 3-5 on page 3-7.

3.Click Setup Wizard on the upper left of the main menu.

4.Click Next to proceed. Input your ISP settings, as needed.

5.At the end of the Setup Wizard, click the Test button to verify your Internet connection. If you have trouble connecting to the Internet, use the “Troubleshooting Tips” on page 3-4to correct basic problems, or see Chapter 7, “Troubleshooting”.
