3. Next, plug in one end of the remaining Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port
of your laptop/pc and into any one of the ports marked 1-4 on the back panel
of your Router.

this wired connection with your Router.
4. Now that your laptop is properly connected to your Router, lets begin setting

laptop and then type in http://192.168.1.1 on the address bar and press Enter.
