To mount the RV315W to the wall:
Determine where you want to mount the RV315W. Verify that the surface is
smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy.
Drill two pilot holes into the surface 5.9 inches (150 mm) apart.
Insert a screw into each hole, leaving a gap between the surface and the base of
the screw head of at least 0. 1 inches (3 mm).
Place the RV315W wall-mount slots over the screws and slide the RV315W down
until the screws fit snugly into the wall-mount slots.
The wireless module of the RV315W is enabled by default. You can connect one
PC with an Ethernet cable or through a wireless connection to perform the initial
configuration. Use the default wireless network name (SSID) and pre-shared key
that are provided on the product label at the bottom of the RV315W to connect the
PC to your wireless network for the first time.
Power off all equipment, including the cable or DSL modem, the PC that you will
use to connect to the RV315W, and the RV315W.
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to your cable or DSL modem. Connect the
other end to the WAN0 port on the back panel of the RV315W.
Connect one end of a different Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports on the back
panel. Connect the other end to an Ethernet port on the PC that you will use to run
web-based Configuration Utility.
Skip this step if you want to connect the PC to the RV315W through a
NOTE
wireless connection.
Connect the supplied power adapter to the POWER port on the back panel. Plug
the other end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet. Make sure that the
power switch is turned off.
Use only the power adapter that is supplied with the unit. Using a different
NOTE
power adapter could damage the unit.
