B. Making the Connections.
1.
The first step is to power-down your cable/DSL modem by
unplugging it, and turning off your computers.
2.
The next step is to connect the
cable/DSL modem to the router.
Your modem is most likely
connected directly to your home
computer with an Ethernet cable at
this time. Disconnect that cable
from the modem and plug in the
supplied blue cable. The other end of
the blue Ethernet cable gets plugged
into the Router's Internet port. (See
photos at right)
3.
Now plug the Ethernet cable from your
home computer into one of the 4
Ethernet ports on the back of the router.
Do not connect your QV laptop to these
ports.
4.
Next connect the Power Adapter
(included) to the Router's power port
and then plug it in a power outlet. The
Power LED on the front of the router
will light up when it is plugged in.
5.
Next power-on the cable/DSL modem by plugging it back in. The
Internet LED on the front of the router should now be illuminated.
6.
Press the reset button on the back of the Router and hold it in for 3
seconds. This will restore the Router's default settings.
This completes the Router connections.
