Basic setup to configure the router for your connection to the Internet. Make
the appropriate selections for DSL/Cable, Ethernet/USB and
Username/Password. Click Save and Restart to save the configuration. (It will
take 1 minute for the router to restart.) Recheck the Connection Status.
When the status is “Connected”web browsing is possible.
If after following the above steps, the Status page still indicates
“Disconnected”, unplug the power cable to your broadband modem, and
leave it disconnected for 10 minutes. At the end of that time reconnect the
power to it, and when the modem has fully restarted, power cycle the router
to restart it. (It will take 1 minute for the router to restart.) Recheck the
Connection Status. When the Connection line under the WAN section near
the top of the page reads “Connected”, the router has successfully connected
to the Internet.
Test the Internet connection by opening a favorite Web page.
