uses one, and then plug the modem back in.
Use the Ethernet cable to connect the modem to the yellow Internet port on the

Connect the router to a power source. The router’s Power LED lights amber and
then turns white when the router is ready.
Make sure that the router’s WiFi LED is lit. Find the router’s preassigned WiFi
network name and password on the label on the router.
Open the WiFi connection manager on your computer or other WiFi-enabled
device, find the router’s WiFi network name, and use the router’s password to
connect.
