2.1 Router Setup
IMPORTANT!
• Use a wired connection when setting up your wireless router to
avoid possible setup problems.
• Before setting up your ASUS wireless router, do the following:
• If you are replacing an existing router, disconnect it from your
network.
• Disconnect the cables/wires from your existing modem setup. If
your modem has a backup battery, remove it as well.
• Reboot your cable modem and computer (recommended).
A. Wired connection
NOTE: You can use either a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable for wired connection.
To set up your wireless router via wired connection:
1. Plug your router into a power outlet and power it on. Connect
the network cable from your computer to a LAN port on your
router.
