Initial Setup

Where to Place Your Router

For the best results, place the Router next to your modem in

an open location away from large metal objects and magnets

such as those found in speakers. Raising the Router above

floor level can improve the strength of your wireless signal.

How to Set It Up

GETTING STARTED

1. Connect your Router’s Ethernet cable to your modem’s Ethernet

port (on the back of your modem). This port might be labeled

differently on your particular modem. If you are adding a

Router for the first time, this port may be connected to your

computer by an Ethernet cable. It is OK to disconnect your

computer and plug the Router into the modem instead.

2. Plug the Router’s power supply into a wall outlet.

3. Put the CD into your computer. If the CD doesn’t

open automatically, please browse to your CD drive

and double-click on the Belkin Setup CD icon.

4. Click the Setup icon on the CD menu.

Setup

GETTING STARTED

5. After a brief installation, the setup software will ask you

for the network name and password from the network

information card that is attached to your Router. Store the

card under the base of your Router for future reference.

GETTING STARTED

6. A progress screen will appear while additional software is

installed. This may take a few minutes to complete. Once

finished, a “Success” message will appear indicating that you

are connected to the Internet via your new Belkin Router.

During setup you may be asked for additional information.

You may need to enter a username and password provided

by your ISP. This username and password is likely to be

found on materials that came from your ISP when you

signed up for service. If necessary, you may need to contact

your ISP to retrieve your username and password.

If you have a static IP address, you may need to enter

additional information also provided by your ISP.

If your computer doesn’t have a wireless adapter, or the

setup software is unable to control it, you may be asked to

connect your computer to the Router with a network cable.

GETTING STARTED

Advanced Tools & Settings

After the initial setup is complete, you have the option to

change settings like your network name, security type, and

password. To make these changes and others, click on the

Advanced Tools icon at the CD Setup menu and select one

of the following settings that you would like to change:

Network Name & Security – Personalize your network name

(SSID), password, and strength of wireless security.

Internet Service Provider & Login Settings – Have

you moved or changed Internet Service Providers?

If you’d like to change these settings without running

through the setup process again, this is the place.

The Belkin Router Manager appears in your system tray

(Windows) or menu bar (Mac). Its icon indicates the current

status of your Router and also allows you to access your

Router’s settings to make changes. It also provides quick

access to software that came bundled with your Router.

To access the Router settings, click on the icon

and select from the menu that appears.

The status of your Router is shown by the Belkin Router Manager

icon, which closely mimics the light on the front of the Router.

Blue: You are connected to your Belkin Router

and it is connected to the Internet.

Amber: You are connected to your Belkin Router,

but it is not connected to the Internet.

GETTING STARTED

In your browser, type “http://router” (you do not need to type

in anything else such as “www”). Then press the Enter key. If

you’re still having trouble running the manual setup option, type

“192.168.2.1” in your browser (you do not need to type in anything

else such as “http://” or “www”). Then press the Enter key.
