Manual Setup

There are two steps to setting up your wireless router:

1.Connect the Product Family to the ADSL or cable modem, and connect a computer to the Product Family.

Your computer has to be set to automatically get its TCP/IP network settings from the Product Family through DHCP. This is usually the case. If your are unsure about this, use the wizard on the CD, which automatically takes care of this for you, or refer to the documentation for your computer.

2.Configure the Product Family to use your Internet service.
