4 Connecting the Router
Once you have all the information you need you can start to connect your hardware
together. Follow the steps:
1. Turn off every system down, including your Cable/DSL modem, PCs, and
Access Router.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your Cable/DSL modem Ethernet port to
Access Router WAN port.
3. Connect another Ethernet cable from your PC Ethernet port to one of the
LAN ports of Access Router.
4. If you use a Wireless LAN card, you can skip the LAN port cable
connection. You can connect wirelessly without cabling later.
5. Connect the Power adapter to Access Router’s Power port. The ‘Diagnostic’
LED will light for a few seconds while the Access Router goes through its
internal diagnostic test. It will go off when the test is complete and ready.
6. Power on your Cable/DSL modem and make sure WAN ‘Link’ LED is on.
7. Press the reset button on the back of the Access Router and wait for the
‘Diagnostic’ LED goes off.
8. Power on your PC and/or your Wireless card PC.
9. The Access Router is now connected! You can insert the bundled CD and
install AP Configuration Wizard on your PCs.
