Installing Your Router
Using the Smart Wizard
The Smart Wizard setup procedure should take about 15 minutes to complete. Before using the
Smart Wizard, ensure that:
You are using a PC with either a Mac operating system or a Windows operating system
(Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows 2000, or Windows XP with Service Pack 2); and a
wired Ethernet connection, not a wireless connection.
You have an Internet service connection through an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
You have the configuration information provided by your ISP.
Using the Smart Wizard
The NETGEAR Smart Wizard takes you through the procedure to connect your router, modem,
and PC(s). It then helps you to configure your wireless settings and enable wireless security for
your network.
The Smart Wizard guides you through the setup process by automating many of the
steps. At each step in the setup process, the Smart Wizard checks to ensure that the steps you
perform are successfully completed.
To set up your router using the Smart Wizard:
