Step 3
Check the Connection
3.1
Once you have completed
connecting the Router, the Wizard
will check the connection to the
Router and then go on to determine
what type of Internet connection
you have.
3.2 User Name and Password Needed
If you have a connection type
that requires a user name and a
password, the Wizard will ask you
to type in your user name and
password. If your connection type
does not require a user name and
password, you will not see
this screen.
Your user name and password is
provided to you by your Internet
Service Provider. If you have to
type in a user name and password
to connect to the Internet, then
type that same user name and
password in here. Your user
name looks something like
“[email protected]” or simply
“jsmith”. The service name is
optional and is very rarely required
by your ISP. If you don’t know your
service name, leave this blank.
When you have entered your
information, click “Next” to
move on.

3.3 Wireless Setup
This step is optional.
Click “Next”
if you want to skip it.
Using this step, you can customize
your wireless network settings if
you want to. Follow the steps on
the screen to complete this step.
Click “Next” to continue.
Step 4
Configure the Router
The Wizard will now transfer all of the configuration information to the
Router. This will take approximately one minute. During this time, do
not turn off the Router or computer. The Router will restart itself at the
end of this step.
4.1 Checking Internet
The Wizard will now check for an
Internet connection. This can take
a few minutes. The Wizard may not
detect a connection right away. If
not, it will retry a number of times.
The “Connected” light on the front
panel of the Router will flash during
this time. Please be patient through
this process.

Finished
When the Internet connection
is complete, the Wizard will tell
you that you are finished. The
“Connected” LED on the front of
the Router will be solid GREEN,
indicating that the Router is now
connected to the Internet.
Your Router is now connected to the Internet. Now you can begin
surfing the Internet by opening your browser and going to your favorite
web page.
Congratulations.
You have finished installing your new Belkin Router.
You are ready to set up the other computers in your home. You can
also add computers to your Router anytime you want.
