Your C4000LG can automatically detect and configure your Internet (section 4.1), or done manually (section 4.2).

Automatic Connection

Open your web browser to a website. Wait while your device tries to detect your DSL connection to your ISP. This may take a few
minutes.

After it detects the connection, the LED Ring will show green on your C4000LG when the Internet is ready for you to use. If you
have a PPPoE connection, you will have to enter the user name and password provided by your ISP.
3.
Go to Set Up a Wireless Network if you wish to configure your wireless settings.

If the automatic connection is not successful, check your connections and restart the Device. Also, make sure you have entered the
user name and password correctly. If you still cannot access the Internet, follow the steps in the next section to manually configure
the Internet connection.

Apply.
If the login screen does not open, make sure you allow web browser pop-up windows, JavaScripts and
Java permissions. Your computer should be also set to get an IP address automatically from a DHCP server.
