Installation
This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router
in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.
• Please congure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your modem.
• You can only use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the
router, then you must turn o your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the
Internet port on the router, and then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your ISP to
change connection types (USB to Ethernet).
• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as
WinPoet, Broadjump, or Enternet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.
• When running the Setup Wizard from the D-Link CD, make sure the computer you are running the CD from
is connected to the Internet and online or the wizard will not work. If you have disconnected any hardware,
re-connect your computer back to the modem and make sure you are online.
