Section 3 - Installation
This section will walk you through the installation of the DIR-1360.
• Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet,
attic, or garage. This is to allow proper ventilation and prevent overheating.
• Configure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your Internet connection. Verify that it
is connected to the Internet before connecting additional devices.
• If your Internet Service provider (ISP) provided you with a modem/router combo, you will need to set it to "bridge"
mode so the router can work properly. Please contact your ISP or refer to the user manual for your modem/router
device.
• If connecting to a DSL modem, make sure to have your DSL service information provided by your Internet Service
Provider handy. This information is likely to include your DSL account's Username and Password. Your ISP may also
supply you with additional WAN configuration settings which might be necessary to establish a connection.
• If you are connecting a considerable amount of networking equipment, it may be a good idea to take the time to
label each cable or take a picture of your existing setup before making any changes.
• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as
WinPoET, BroadJump, or EnterNet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.
