The Router

Introduction

The D-Link Router supplied with your jukebox provides two functions. It is the connecting point for the network in the location, and it distributes the Internet from the Modem to the jukebox and other devices. The connections between the router and the jukebox and other broadband equipment will be the same for all types of Internet technology.
