Configuring Your Internet Connection Using the Smart Setup Wizard

You can manually configure your Internet connection using the Basic Settings screen, or you can allow the Smart Setup Wizard to determine your Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration.

The Smart Setup Wizard searches your Internet connection for servers and protocols to determine your ISP configuration. This feature is not the same as the Smart Wizard configuration assistant that appears only when the router is in its factory default state. To use the Smart Setup Wizard to assist with configuration or to verify the Internet connection settings:

1.From the top of the main menu of the browser interface, click Setup Wizard.

2.Click Next to proceed. Enter your ISP settings, as needed.

3.At the end of the Setup Wizard, click Test to verify your Internet connection. If you have trouble connecting to the Internet, see Chapter 7, “Troubleshooting.”

Viewing and Configuring Basic ISP Settings

Settings related to your Internet service are specified in the Basic Settings screen. To access the Basic Settings screen, from the main menu of the router’s Web Configuration Interface, under Setup, select Basic Settings.

The content you see in the Basic Settings screen depends on whether your ISP requires that you log in with a user name and password for Internet access.

No login required by ISP. If no login is required by your ISP, the following settings appear in the Basic Settings screen.
