How to manually set up your router
Although running your router’s setup software is the easiest way to set up and
maintain your router, advanced users may want to manually configure their
router. Be careful when changing settings using this method.
To manually set up your router:
1.
Connect your router’s power adapter to a power outlet.
2.
To connect to your router by using a cable:
a.
Connect an Ethernet cable to the computer and to an available
numbered Ethernet (blue) port on the back of your router.
b.
Disconnect the cable from the router’s Internet port.
3.
To connect to your router wirelessly:
a.
Make sure that your computer’s wireless networking is turned on.
b.
Connect to the secure wireless name shown in the Quick Start Guide
that came with your router. (You can change the network name and
password later during router setup.) If you need help connecting to
the network, refer to your device documentation.
4.
Open a web browser on the computer, then go to
www.linksyssmartwifi.com. (When there is no Internet connection,
this address re-routes directly to your router.)
5.
Click I have read and accepted the License Terms for using this
software, read the license agreement, then select the checkbox.
6.
Select I want to skip Setup and and configure my router manually,
then click Next.
7.
Enter admin as the user name, then enter the default password (admin).
The main menu opens.
8.
After you finish changing settings, click Save and close the browser
window.
TIP
For descriptions of the settings, click Help at the top of the screen.
