Configuring Your Router With Your ADSL Or Cable Modem

To begin with it is best to start from a known working set-up so this guide assumes that you currently have Internet working via your Modem directly connected to your Computer – essentially with the Belkin Router not yet in place.

Step 1 – Setting Up The Hardware

Locate the RJ45 Cable between your Modem and the Networking (LAN) Port of your Computer. Take note as to the location of this Port on your Computer as you will need it again.

Unplug the ‘Modem’ Cable from your Computer and plug it into the separate Port on the Rear of the Belkin Router labelled as ‘Internet/WAN’ or ‘Connection To Modem’.

Next, locate the RJ45 Cable that was supplied with your Belkin Router. This is usually a blue cable.

Plug one end of this Cable into ANY one of the LAN Ports of your Belkin Router. These Ports are labelled 1-4.

Connect the other end of the same (blue)

Cable to the Networking Port of your

Computer – the same Port that the

Modem used to be connected to.

The Hardware set-up is now complete and all devices can be powered on if they are not already. The Router’s LEDs should indicate the Modem and PC connections.
