Use the Setup Wizard [router mode]

In most situations, you do not need use the Setup Wizard in the local browser UI. In
some situations, you might want to use the Setup Wizard to redetect your Internet
settings.
After the initial setup and login procedure (see Installation and Initial Login on page
23), if AP is in router mode, you can use the Setup Wizard to redetect your Internet
settings. Using the Setup Wizard in the local browser UI is much easier than resetting
your AP to factory default settings and going through the initial login procedure.
Note: The Setup Wizard is not required if the AP is operating in AP mode and is
therefore masked out in the local browser UI.
The Setup Wizard detects your Internet setting through the AP's network connection
to your modem, gateway, or Ethernet outlet with Internet connection. The Setup Wizard
detects the WAN IP address assigned by your Internet service provider (ISP), and
automatically adjusts the settings for your AP to access the Internet.
To use the Setup Wizard:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to a WiFi
network or LAN port on the AP.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, dismiss the warning. For more information,
see Dismiss a browser security warning on page 39.
3. Enter the AP local device password.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password
is case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Setup Wizard.
The Setup Wizard page displays.
5. Select the Yes radio button.
6. Click the Next button.
The Setup Wizard searches your Internet connection for servers and protocols to
determine your Internet configuration. When the AP connects to the Internet, you
are prompted to change the local device password (also referred to as the admin
password).
