Setup
This section will show you how to set up and congure your new D-Link router using the Web-based conguration utility.
Web-based Conguration Utility
To access the conguration utility, open a Web-browser such as Internet Explorer
v6.0 or later, Mozilla Firefox v1.0 or later, Safari 2.0 or later, or Google Chrome 1.0
or later and enter the IP address of the Router (default is 192.168.1.1).
The login dialog box will appear:
1. Type admin in the User Name eld.
2. Enter admin in the Password eld.
3. Click the OK button to log into the Router.
To congure the WAN connection used by the Router it is rst necessary to communicate with the Router through its management interface, which is HTML-based
and can be accessed using a Web browser. The easiest way to make sure your computer has the correct IP settings is to congure it to use the DHCP server in the
Router. The next section describes how to change the IP conguration for a computer running a Windows operating system to be a DHCP client.
