Connect To Another Router - D-Link DIR-604 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation
If you are connecting the D-Link Router to another router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have
to do the following before connecting the Router to your network:
• Move the AP Mode/Client Mode/Router Mode switch on the DIR-604 so that it is in the AP Mode position.
• Disable UPnP
™
• Disable DHCP
• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The Ethernet port on the router
cannot accept a DHCP address from your other router.
To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:
1. Plug the power into the router. Connect one of your computers to the Ethernet port using an Ethernet cable. Make
sure your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254). Please see the Networking
Basics section for more information. If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before
making any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically in which
case you will not have to do anything to your computer.
2. Open a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the user
name to Admin and leave the password box empty. Click Log In to continue.
3. Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings
to continue.
4. Click Setup and then click Network Settings. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server server checkbox. Click Save
Settings to continue.
5. Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet mask of your network. Click Save Settings to
save your settings. Use this new IP address to access the configuration utility of the router in the future. Close the
