Wireless-N Gigabit Security Router with VPN
Chapter 5: Connecting the Router
Overview
To set up your network, you will do the following:
•Connect the Router to one of your PCs according to the instructions in this chapter.
•By default, Windows 98, 2000, Millennium, and XP computers are set to obtain an IP address automatically, so unless you have changed the default setting, then you will not need to configure your PCs. (If you do need to configure your PCs, refer to Windows Help for more information.)
•Set up and configure the Router with the setting(s) provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) according to “Chapter 6: Setting Up and Configuring the Router.”
The installation technician from your ISP should have left the setup information with you after installing your broadband connection. If not, you can call your ISP to request the information. Once you have the setup information for your specific type of Internet connection, then you can begin installation and setup of the Router.
