Before installing the Router, make sure your PC is connected to the Internet through the 
broadband service successfully. If there is any problem, please contact your ISP. After that, please 
install the Router according to the following steps. Don't forget to pull out the power plug and keep 
your hands dry. 
1.  Power off your PC, Cable/DSL Modem, and the Router.   
2.  Locate an optimum location for the Router. The best place is usually at the center of your 

wireless network.   

3.  Adjust the direction of the antenna. Normally, upright is a good direction. 
4.  Connect the PC(s) and each Switch/Hub in your LAN to the LAN Ports on the Router, shown 

in Figure 2-1. (If you have the wireless NIC and want to use the wireless function, you can 
skip this step.) 

5.  Connect the DSL/Cable Modem to the WAN port on the Router, shown in Figure 2-1. 
6.  Connect the power adapter to the power socket on the Router, and the other end into an 

electrical outlet. The Router will start to work automatically. 

7.  Power on your PC and Cable/DSL Modem.
