Using the Smart Setup Wizard

You can use the Smart Setup Wizard to assist with manual configuration or to verify the Internet
connection. The Smart Setup Wizard is not the same as the Smart Wizard configuration assistant
(as illustrated in

Figure 3-1

) that only appears when the router is in its factory default state. After

you configure the wireless router, the Smart Wizard configuration assistant will not appear again.

To use the Smart Setup Wizard to assist with manual configuration or to verify the Internet
connection settings, follow this procedure:

1. Connect to the wireless router by typing

http://www.routerlogin.net

in the address field of your

browser, then click Enter.

2. For security reasons, the router has its own user name and password. When prompted, enter

admin

for the router user name and

password

for the router password, both in lower case

letters. To change the password, see

“Changing the Administrator Password” on page 6-9

.

Once you have entered your user name and password, your Web browser should find the
WPNT834 router and display the home page as shown in

Figure 3-5 on page 3-7

.

3. Click Setup Wizard on the upper left of the main menu.

4. Click Next to proceed. Input your ISP settings, as needed.

5. At the end of the Setup Wizard, click the Test button to verify your Internet connection. If you

have trouble connecting to the Internet, use the

“Troubleshooting Tips” on page 3-4

to correct

basic problems, or see

Chapter 7, “Troubleshooting”

.

Note: The router user name and password are not the same as any user name or

password you may use to log in to your Internet connection.
