and with a wired Ethernet connection, not a wireless connection.
• You have an Internet service connection through an Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Using the Smart Wizard
The NETGEAR Smart Wizard takes you through the procedure to connect your router, modem,
and PC(s). It then helps you to configure your wireless settings and enable wireless security for
your network.
The Smart Wizard guides you through the setup process. At each step in the setup
process, the Smart Wizard checks to ensure that the steps you perform are successfully completed.
To set up your router using the Smart Wizard:

Insert the Resource CD into your Windows PC. The CD will automatically start and select the
language you are using on your PC. Select a different language option, if you prefer.

The Smart Wizard guides you through installing your router, connecting your router to the
Internet, configuring your wireless network settings, and selecting the optimum security
protection for your network. If you choose not to select a security option during installation,
If the CD does not automatically start, browse the CD and double-click on
