Push the WPS button on the router and on your other wireless device to create an encryption- secured wireless connection automatically.

Use standard LAN cables (RJ45 connectors) to connect your PCs to these ports.

Note:

Any LAN port on the Wireless Broadband Router will automatically function as an "Uplink" port when required. Just connect any port to a normal port on the other hub, using a standard LAN cable.

Connect the DSL or Cable Modem here. If your modem came with a cable, use the supplied cable. Otherwise, use a standard LAN cable.

This button will reset the Wireless Broadband Router to the factory default settings.

To do this, press and hold the Reset Button for five (5) seconds, until the Status LED is lit, then release the Reset Button, and wait the Wireless Broadband Router to restart using the factory default values.

Connect the supplied power adapter here.
