Before installing and connecting your router manually, review the list below and make sure that
you have all of the necessary information.
• Internet service connection through an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
• The configuration information your ISP gave you. Depending on how your Internet account
was set up, you may need the following information to set up your wireless router and access
the Internet:
– Host and Domain Name
– Internet Login Name and Password (frequently an email address and password)
– Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses
– Fixed or Static IP Address
Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet.
If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP.
• If you have cable modem service, make sure that you are using the same computer on which
you first set up your Internet account.
If you have not already done so:
• Check the package contents of your router to ensure that it is complete (see
New Router" on page
• Select an optimum location for your wireless router after reviewing the guidelines presented in
"Positioning Your Wireless Router" on page
