Configuration using the Setup Wizard

The Web Configuration Manager contains a Setup Wizard that can automatically determine your network connection type. If the Setup Wizard does not launch automatically, click on the Setup Wizard heading in the upper left of the opening screen, shown in Figure 4-2.

When the Wizard launches, allow the router to automatically determine your connection type by selecting Yes in the menu below and clicking Next:

The Setup Wizard will now check for a connection on the Internet port. If the Setup Wizard determines that there is no connection to the Internet port, you will be prompted to check the physical connection between your router and cable or DSL modem. When the connection is properly made, the router’s Internet LED should be on.

Next, the Setup Wizard will attempt to determine which of the following connection types your Internet service account uses:

Dynamic IP assignment

Fixed IP address assignment

A login protocol such as PPPoE

The Setup Wizard will report which connection type it has discovered, and it will then use the appropriate configuration menu for that connection type.
