How to connect a computer to your network

You can connect a computer to your network using an Easy Setup Key (the

easiest way) or manually .

How to connect a computer using an Easy Setup Key

To use an Easy Setup Key, you first need to create one using any available USB

drive . After it has been created, you can use the same key to connect several

computers to your network .

TIP

The Easy Setup Key stores network information (name, password,

security type, and security key) so you don’t have to remember

them .

To create an Easy Setup Key:
1.
Run Cisco Connect, then click Add device under Computers and devices .

The Computers and other devices screen opens .

2. Click Computer .

3. Select no, I don’t have an Easy Setup Key, then click next .
4. Insert a USB drive into an available USB port on your computer . This USB

drive will be your new Easy Setup Key .
Cisco Connect detects the newly attached USB drive and copies the

router’s settings and a copy of Cisco Connect to it .

5. When the files have finished copying, remove the Easy Setup Key from

your computer . You can now use it to install Cisco Connect onto other

computers and to connect them to the network .

6. Click Close .
