Chapter 3: Connect the Router

Overview

Unlike a hub or a switch, the Router's setup consists of more than simply plug-
ging hardware together. You will have to configure your networked PCs to
accept the IP addresses that the Router assigns them (if applicable), and you
will also have to configure the Router with setting(s) provided by your Internet
Service Provider (ISP).
The installation technician from your ISP should have left the setup informa-
tion for your modem with you after installing your broadband connection. If
not, you can call your ISP to request the data.
Once you have the setup information you need for your specific type of Internet
connection, you can begin installation and setup of the Router.
Figure 3-1
Note: You have two methods of installing the Router: using the Setup
Wizard or using the manual installation instructions. Network
Everywhere recommends you run the Setup Wizard on the Setup
Wizard CD-ROM. Insert the Setup Wizard CD-ROM into your PC's
CD-ROM drive. The Setup Wizard will run automatically. Then follow
the Setup Wizard's instructions to install the Router.
If you prefer to manually install the Router, then proceed to the next
section of the User Guide.
