To access the configuration utility, open a web browser such as Internet
Explorer and enter http://dlinkrouter.local./
Windows and Mac users may also connect by typing the IP address of the
router (by default this is http://192.168.1.1) in the address bar.
The default password printed on a label on the back of your router. If you
previously followed the Setup Wizard (see page 13), please use the admin
password you entered during the wizard. Click Log In to proceed.
Note: If you cannot remember your password and cannot log in, press the reset
button (see page 5) to restore the router to its default settings.
Home
The Home page displays the current status of the router in the form of an
interactive diagram. There are four main sections: Internet, D-Link, Connected
Clients, and USB Device. You can click each icon to display information about
each section at the bottom of the screen. The menu bar at the top of the
page will allow you to quickly navigate to the Settings and Management
functions. You may quickly jump back Home at any time.
Note: The system will automatically log out after a period of inactivity.
