Alternatively, you can configure your computer manually with a DNS address, as explained in the
documentation for your computer.
•
The router might not be configured as the default gateway on your computer.
Reboot the computer and verify that the router address (www.routerlogin.net) is listed by your computer
as the default gateway address.
•
You might be running login software that is no longer needed. If your ISP provided a program to log
you in to the Internet (such as WinPoET), you no longer need to run that software after installing your
router. You might need to go to Internet Explorer and select Tools > Internet Options, click the
Connections tab, and select the Never dial a connection. Other browsers provide similar options.
Changes Are Not Saved
If the router does not save the changes that you make in the router interface, do the following:
•
When entering configuration settings, always click the Apply button before moving to another screen
or tab, or your changes are lost.
•
Click the Refresh or Reload button in the web browser. It is possible that the changes occurred, but
the old settings might be in the web browser's cache.
Troubleshoot Wireless Connectivity
If you are experiencing trouble connecting wirelessly to the router, try to isolate the problem:
•
Does the wireless device or computer that you are using find your wireless network?
If not, check the WiFi LED on the front of the router. If it is off, you can press the WiFi On/Off button
on the router to turn the router wireless radios back on.
If you disabled the router's SSID broadcast, then your wireless network is hidden and does not display
in your wireless client's scanning list. (By default, SSID broadcast is enabled.)
•
Does your wireless device support the security that you are using for your wireless network (WPA or
WPA2)?
•
If you want to view the wireless settings for the router, use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer
to a LAN port on the router. Then log in to the router, and select BASIC > Wireless.
Note
Be sure to click the Apply button if you change settings.
If your wireless device finds your network but the signal strength is weak, check these conditions:
