I am an advanced user, can I bypass the setup wizard?
To bypass the wizards, connect the router, log in from a DHCP enabled (IP & DNS) computer at http://www.routerlogin.net/basicsetting.htm with the user name of admin and the password of password, both in lower case letters.
Troubleshooting Tips
Here are some tips for correcting simple problems you may have.
Once the router is connected, always restart your network in this sequence:
1.Unplug and turn off the modem, turn off the router, and shut down the computer.
2.Turn on the modem and wait two minutes.
3.Turn on the router and wait 1 minute.
4.Turn on the computer.
Make sure the cables are plugged in.
Make sure the network settings of the computer are correct.
Computers connected to the router must be configured to obtain IP and DNS addresses automatically via DHCP. For help with this, please see the tutorials on the CD.
Check the router status lights to verify correct router operation.
The Power light should turn solid green. If after 2 minutes it is not, reset the router as described in the Setup Manual on the CD.
I don’t have a working CD drive.
