Please remember that D-Link Air Plus Xtreme G™ wireless devices are pre-conﬁgured to connect together, right out of the box, with their default settings.

For a typical wireless setup at home (as shown above), please do the following:

You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSL-subscriber line into your home or ofﬁce)

Consult with your Cable or DSL provider for proper installation of the modem

Connect the Cable or DSL modem to the DI-604 Ethernet Broadband Router (see the printed Quick Installation Guide included with your router.)

Connect the Ethernet Broadband Router to the DWL-2000AP (See the printed Quick Installation Guide included with the DWL-2000AP.)

If you are connecting a desktop computer to your network, install the D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G™ DWL-G520 wireless PCI adapter into an available PCI slot on your desktop computer. You may also install the DWL-520+.

(See the printed Quick Installation Guide included with the network adapter.)
