Manual Setup

If you know what sort of Internet service you have, you

might try a manual setup. For this, you will need a Wi-Fi-

enabled smartphone, tablet, or computer.

Connect to Your Router

Retrieve the network ID card from the foot of your new Belkin

Router.

[Diagram of bottom of the router showing service card – can be

obtained from “Tested QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided]

Can’t find the card? The default network name and password are also printed on the foot of

the Router.

Use your computer, tablet, or smartphone to connect to the

wireless network shown on the network ID card.

[Diagram of connecting to SSID screenshot – needs creating, take

direction from “Tested QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided]

When requested, please enter the password (security key) provided

on the card.

Take a moment to look at the light on the front of the Router. If it

is solid blue, your Router was able to connect to the Internet

automatically.

[Image of front of the router with blue LED (needs creating)]

If not, please proceed to “Manually Set Up Your Internet

Connection” on page XX.

Manually Set Up Your Internet

Connection

Use a browser to visit http://router/.The router homepage should

appear.

[Image of browser showing the router homepage – see “Tested

QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided for guideline]

You can also try visiting http://192.168.2.1/.

The status of your Internet connection is shown in the

upper right corner of the router homepage. If after a few

moments it says “Connected,” you’re done! You can surf the

Internet.

[Image of browser showing “connected” homepage – see “Tested QIG 2011 07

14.pdf” provided for guideline]

If not, select “Connection Type” from the menu on the left.

[Zoomed in image of the “Connection Type” option in the

homepage – see “Tested QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided for

guideline]

If a password screen appears, press “Submit.”

[Image of the login screen showing the submit button – see

“Tested QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided for guideline]

Dynamic Connection

Cable and fiber customers generally require a dynamic

connection. Some DSL customers require a PPPoE

connection. Let’s try dynamic first. Select “Dynamic” from the

menu that appears and press “Next.”

[Image of the connection type screen with dynamic

selected – see “Tested QIG 2011 07 14.pdf” provided for

guideline]

A service name is generally not required. Hit “Apply Changes.”

The Router will restart.

[Image of the service name page – see “Tested QIG 2011 07

14.pdf” provided for guideline]

If after a few minutes your Internet Status says “Connected,”

you’re done! You can surf the Internet.

[Image of browser showing “connected” homepage – see “Tested QIG 2011 07

14.pdf” provided for guideline]

If these steps do not work, try restarting your modem and

repeating the process.
