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
