Chapter 3 Configuring the Internet and Wireless Settings

This chapter describes how to use the Smart Wizard Installation Assistant on the Resource CD to configure your wireless router’s Internet connection and wireless parameters.

Once you are connected to the Internet and your wireless connections are working, you can also configure the router’s content filtering parameters if you need to change the default settings. See Chapter 4, “Content Filtering.

If you are an advanced user, you can also configure maintenance (see Chapter 5, “Maintenance) and advanced (see Chapter 6, “Advanced Configuration of the Router) settings if you need to change the factory defaults.

Note: Do not change your existing Internet connection. Instead, let the Smart Wizard Installation Assistant on the Resource CD guide you through the setup process.
