Connecting to Cable or DSL Modem

If you need to connect the router to a cable or DSL modem, do the following.
1. Place the router in an open location in the supposed center of your wireless network. Do not
plug the power adapter into the router.
2. Turn off your PC.
3. Unplug the Ethernet cable (that connects your PC to your modem) from your computer and
place it into the INTERNET port of your router.
4. Plug another Ethernet cable into one of the four LAN ports on the router. Plug the other end
into the Ethernet port of your PC.
5. Turn on your modem. Wait until the modem is booted (about 30 seconds).
6. Plug the power adapter to the router and connect to an electrical outlet or power strip. Wait
until the router is booted (about 30 seconds).
7. Turn on your PC.
8. Verify the LEDs of the router. The following LEDs should be solid or blinking green:
POWER, INTERNET, LAN (corresponding to the LAN ports of the router to which
devices from the router's local area network are connected), and WLAN (if the wireless
network correspondingly is on and in use). If not, make sure that your computer, modem,
and router are powered on and the relevant cables are connected correctly.
