Wired Connection to a PC
1. Before you begin, make sure that all of your network’s hardware is powered off,
including the Router, PCs, and cable or DSL modem.
2. Connect one end of an Ethernet network cable to one of the LAN ports (labeled 1-4) on
the back of the Router (see Figure Wired-1), and the other end to an Ethernet port on a PC.

3. Repeat this step to connect more PCs, a switch, or other network devices to the
Router.
4. Connect a different Ethernet network cable from your cable or DSL modem to the
Internet port on the Router's rear panel (see Figure Wired-2). This is the only port that will work for
your modem connection.

5. Power on the cable or DSL modem.
6. Connect the power adapter to the Router's Power port (see Figure Wired-3), and then
plug the power adapter into a power outlet.
