Setting Up Your Router for Internet Access

When configuring your wireless router manually, you must log in to your wireless-N modem router to set it up initially and to make any changes to your wireless router’s settings later.

To access the router:

1.Type http://192.168.0.1 in the address field of your browser, and then click Enter.

You can also enter either of these addresses to connect to your wireless router: http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.

2.When prompted, enter admin for the user name and password for the password, both in lowercase letters. (For security reasons, the wireless-N modem router has its own user name and password.)

The wireless-N modem router user name and password are not the same as any user name or password you might use to log in to your Internet connection.
