setup assistant Cd does not automatically start .

If the CD-ROM does not start the Setup Assistant automatically, it could

be that the computer is running other applications that are interfering

with the CD drive .

1 . If the Setup Assistant Welcome screen does not appear within 15–20

seconds, open up your CD-ROM drive by double-clicking on the “My

Computer” icon that is located on your desktop .

2 . Next, double-click on the CD-ROM drive that the Setup Assistant CD

has been placed in to start the installation .

3 . The Setup Assistant should start within a few seconds . If, instead, a

window appears showing the files on the CD, double-click on the icon

labeled “SetupAssistant” .

4 . If the Setup Assistant still does not start, reference the section titled

“Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 68) of this User

setup assistant cannot find my Router .

If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the installation

process, please check the following items:

1 . If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the

installation process, there may be third-party firewall software

installed on the computer attempting to access the Internet .

Examples of third-party firewall software are ZoneAlarm, BlackICE PC

Protection, McAfee Personal Firewall, and Norton Personal Firewall . If

you do have firewall software installed on your computer, please make

sure that you properly configure it . You can determine if the firewall

software is preventing Internet access by temporarily turning it off . If,

while the firewall is disabled, Internet access works properly, you will

need to change the firewall settings to function properly when it is

turned on . Please refer to the instructions provided by the publisher

of your firewall software for instructions on configuring the firewall to

allow Internet access .

2 . Unplug power to the Router for 10 seconds, and then plug the power

back into the Router . Ensure that the Router’s “router” LED is on; it

should be solid BLUE . If not, check to make sure that the AC adapter

is connected to the Router and plugged into a wall outlet .

3 . Ensure that you have a cable connected between (1) the network

(Ethernet) port on the back of the computer and (2) one of the “to

Wired Computers” ports on the back of the Router .

Note: The computer should NOT be connected to the port labeled

“to Modem” on the back of the Router .

4 . Try shutting down and restarting your computer, then rerunning

the Setup Assistant .

If the Setup Assistant is still unable to find the Router, reference

the section titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” for

installation steps .
