Setting Up
the Router
The instructions that follow parallel the steps contained in the Intstallation Buddy,
which provides a visual guide to setting up the Router. It is recommended that the user
run the Installation Buddy first, before attempting any other procedures.
To set up the Router, the user must connect it to both a cable or DSL modem and
a computer. After connecting this first computer, other computers can be added
to the network via
USB,Ethernet, or wirelessly (see “Connecting Additional
Computers on page 21).

setup and plugging in the Router’s Power Cord, connecting the Router to the
cable/DSL modem, and connecting the Router to the computer.

1. Insert Disk 1 (Installation Buddy CD) in the CD-ROM drive of the comput-
er. The Installaton Buddy will start automatically. Wait until the following
