Please wait while your router detects your Internet connection type. After the router detects your Internet connection, you may need to enter information such as a username and password. This information should be provided by the company that provides your Internet, also known as an Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Step 8: If the router detects an Internet connection, but does not detect the type of Internet connection you have, the below screen will appear. Click “Guide me through the Internet connection settings” to display a list of connection types to choose from.

Select your Internet Connection type: DHCP Connection (Dynamic IP Address) or Username/Password (PPPoE)
DHCP Connection
– This type of connection is most commonly used for cable Internet services. You will most likely not need to provide any extra information if you use this connection type.

picture

PPPoE – This type of connection is most commonly used for DSL Internet connections. You will most likely need to provide some additional information before you can connect to the Internet:

  • Username - Your Internet username (provided by your Internet Service Provider)
  • Password - Your Internet password (provided by your Internet Service Provider)

Step 9: Enter the required information, and click Next to continue.

Step 10: For both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless frequencies, create a name (SSID) for your Wi-Fi network. Each Wi-Fi network will also need a password of at least 8 characters. Your wireless clients will need to have this password or key to be able to connect to your wireless network. Click Next to continue.

(Password suggestion: It is suggested that you choose a password that is easy for you to remember but, difficult for others to guess. Strong passwords should include a combination of letters and numbers).

Step 11: In order to secure your router, create a password to access the router’s web-based configuration interface. This should be different from the password to connect to the Wi-Fi network. Enter your password in the field provided, and again in the Verify field.
Click Next to continue.

If you clicked Yes, a window may appear (depending on your web browser) to create a bookmark. Follow the on-screen instructions.
