Install the drivers for the wireless network adapter (such as the D-LinkAir DWL-650) into the laptop computer. See the Quick

Installation Guide included with the DWL-650.

If an Ethernet port is available on the router, connect a computer that is equipped with an Ethernet Network adapter (such as the DFE-530TX+) to the router.
