Manually Installing Your Router 15
To start your network:
1. Plug in and turn on the cable or DSL modem. Wait 2 minutes.
2. Plug the end of the power adapter’s cord into the wall or a power strip, and into the power
adapter outlet of your wireless router (F), as shown in Figure 10. Wait 1 minute.
3. Turn on your computer. It will take several minutes for your router to establish a connection
with your computer and your Internet provider.
Verifying Your Connection
Verify that your router is connected correctly by checking the wireless router status lights (as
illustrated in Figure 11).
Failure to start or restart your network in the correct sequence could prevent you
from accessing the Internet.

For DSL customers, if software logs you in to the Internet, do not run that
software. You might need to go to the Internet Explorer Tools menu, Internet
Options, Connections tab and select “Never dial a connection.”
