Connect to Cable/DSL (WAN Mode)

If your Internet connection is provided using a cable/DSL/satellite modem, follow the steps below before connecting the router
to a cable/DSL/satellite modem:
• If you are using the DIR-412 for the first time, please select the 3G Router mode first to configure your wireless
settings. Refer to the Wireless Settings section for more information.
• After configuring the wireless settings, move the switch to the WAN Mode position and wait for the device to
reboot.
To connect to a broadband modem, or an Ethernet Internet connection such as in a hotel, please follow the steps below:
1. Unplug the Ethernet cable (that connects your computer to your modem) from your computer and place it into the Ethernet
port on the router, or connect an Ethernet cable from the Internet port to the Ethernet port on the router.
2. Plug the power adapter into the router and connect it to an outlet or power strip. Wait about 50 seconds for the router to
boot.
3. Connect the DIR-412 to your computer wirelessly using the settings (SSID, encryption key) you configured previously.
4. Verify the link lights on the router. The power light, Internet light, and the Wireless LAN light should be lit. If not, make sure
your computer, modem, and router are powered on and verify the cable connections are correct.
