Installation

This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an

enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.

• Please configure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your modem.

• You can only use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router,

then you must turn off your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on

the router, and then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to change connection

types (USB to Ethernet).

• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as

WinPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 00 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.

• When running the Setup Wizard from the D-Link CD, make sure the computer you are running the CD from is

connected to the Internet and online or the wizard will not work. If you have disconnected any hardware, re-connect

your computer back to the modem and make sure you are online.
