If you’re installing the router with a Linux-based or UNIX-based computer see your system documentation for TCP/IP and networking setup information.

Once you’ve set up your computer to work with the router, you must reset the network for the devices to be able to communicate correctly.

1.Turn off the DSL or cable modem, wait 15 seconds, and then turn it on again.

Note: If the modem doesn’t have an on/off switch, either pull the modem’s power adapter out of the wall socket or power down the power strip.

2.If the router was powered down, power it up again and wait until the Test light turns off.

3.Restart the computer that is connected to the router.

Note: You may also configure the router from a wireless PC. In that case, set the

PC’s SSID to the router’s default SSID: Wireless and be sure to Disable WEP encryption.
