Quick Setup Guide
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
Connect Your N450 DB Router
Turn off your modem by disconnecting its power supply. Some
modems have a battery backup; this will need to be disconnected at
this time as well.
Connect your Router to your modem using the cable
(already attached).
Power up your modem by plugging in its power supply. If your modem
has a battery backup, it can be reconnected at this time; you may
need to hold the reset button for 10 seconds.
Power up your Router by plugging in its power supply.

GETTING STARTED
Connect to Your Router
Retrieve the network ID card from the foot of your new Belkin Router.
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.
For information on how to connect your wireless devices, please
see the “Connect Your Wireless Devices” section on page 20.
When requested, please enter the password
(security key) provided on the card.
When your device has connected to the Router, use a browser
to visit http://router/. The router homepage will appear.
4
GETTING STARTED
If the page does not load, then try visiting
http://192.168.2.1 to see the router homepage.
Click the “Detect my connection” button in green. (If
you would rather set up the Router manually, click the
“set it up manually” link and proceed to page 10.)
After several moments, your Router should automatically detect
your Internet connection and restart. This can take anywhere from
30 seconds to 3 minutes depending on your connection type.
If your Router is unable to establish an Internet connection
on its own, you may be asked to restart your modem or
provide a username and password if your connection requires
one. Follow the on-screen instructions provided.

GETTING STARTED
Once your Router is online, it will determine if there is a
firmware update available and offer to install it. Please
allow up to 5 minutes for the firmware to update.
If there are no updates available, then setup will proceed.
6
GETTING STARTED
At the next screen you will be invited to change your
network name and password. Re-using your previous
network name (SSID) and password makes connecting
your existing devices to the new router much easier.
If you decide to change these settings, then enter the
new values and click “Save and Continue.” (Note: The
password must be at least 8 characters long.)
If you changed your network name and password, make note
of it on the service card located on the foot of the Router.
You will then have to connect to the new network.

GETTING STARTED
Please take this opportunity to register your Router. This will
help technical support if there is a problem with your Router.
Simply complete each of the required fields and click
“Complete Registration.” If you don’t want to register
right now, click “Register Later” to proceed.
8
GETTING STARTED
At the next screen you can download optional
software that was bundled with your Router.
This screen shows you optional software that is available for your
Router, such as the Belkin Wi-Fi app used to access your router’s
homepage quickly. If you wish to download and install this software
program, simply click on the button appropriate for your device.
