Fast Setup Mode
Your router ships in factory default mode. Fast Setup Mode
provides a simple method of doing the initial setup from your
PC.
1. Your PC must be set to obtain an IP address
automatically using DHCP.
2. Plug the PC into your router’s Ethernet interface or
connect to the wireless LAN (WIFI) using the
credentials printed on your router’s label.
3. When the power LED flashes green, use a web browser
and enter http://192.168.0.1 to access your router.
On the setup screen, select, Getting Started.
4. Once connected, fill in the required fields, apply changes
to save and exit. These configuration changes are
immediately applied to the router.
5. The router’s web configuration sign-on screen displays.
Using the previously defined credentials from step 4,
you can access your router’s full configuration.
For alternative methods of performing an initial setup, see the
