1-6 Installing Your Router
v1.0, January 2009
• Your computer must be set up to use DHCP to get its TCP/IP configuration from the router.
This is usually the case. For help with DHCP, see the documentation that came with your
computer, or see the link to the online document in
“Preparing a Computer for Network
Access” on page B-1 .
Connecting the Wireless USB Modem
1. At the location where you will install the router, connect your activated USB modem to your
computer. Follow the instructions from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to connect to the
Internet from your computer.
2. Place the router in its vertical stand, and adjust the antenna.
For best performance, place the router in a location where your USB modem Internet
connection is strong, such as on a desk near a window instead of on the floor.
3. Connect your wireless USB modem with activated Internet service to the USB port on the rear
panel of the router.
4. If your wireless USB modem has a separate antenna, adjust it as needed.
5. On your computer, close the software that you used to connect to the Internet.
