Connecting and Configuring your Router
14
Verify the contents of your box. You should have the following:
• Wireless G Router
• Quick Installation Guide
• MyEssentials Quick Installation Software CD with User Manual
RJ45 Ethernet Networking Cable (for connection of the Router
to the computer)
• Power Supply
Modem Requirements
Your DSL or cable modem must be equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet port.
Many modems have both an RJ45 Ethernet port and a USB connection.
If you have a modem with both Ethernet and USB, and are using the USB
connection at this time, you will be instructed to use the RJ45 Ethernet
port during the installation procedure. If your modem has only a USB port,
you can request a different type of modem from your ISP, or you can, in
some cases, purchase a modem that has an RJ45 Ethernet port on it.
ALWAYS INSTALL YOUR ROUTER FIRST!
IF YOU ARE INSTALLING
NUMEROUS NETWORK DEVICES FOR THE FIRST TIME, IT IS
IMPORTANT THAT YOUR ROUTER IS CONNECTED AND RUNNING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL OTHER NETWORK COMPONENTS
SUCH AS NOTEBOOK CARDS AND DESKTOP CARDS.
Quick Installation Software
MyEssentials has provided our Quick Installation Software to make
installing your Router a simple and easy task. You can use it to get
your Router up and running in minutes.
The Quick Installation Software requires that your Windows 98SE, Me,
2000, XP, or Mac OS X v10.1.x computer be connected directly to your
DSL or cable modem and that the Internet connection is active and
working at the time of installation. If it is not, you must use the “Alternate
Setup Method” section of this User Manual to configure your Router.
Additionally, if you are using an operating system other than Windows
98SE, Me, 2000, or XP, you must set up the Router using the “Alternate
Setup Method” section of this User Manual.
IMPORTANT:
Run the Quick Installation Software from the computer that
is directly connected to the DSL or cable modem.
DO NOT CONNECT
THE ROUTER AT THIS TIME.

Welcome Screen
After you insert the CD into your
CD-ROM drive, the Wizard’s welcome
screen will appear. Make sure you have
not connected the Router at this point.
If you have connected your Router,
please reconnect your computer
directly to the modem. Click “Run the
Quick Installation Software” when you
are ready to move on.
Progress Screen
The Quick Installation Software will
show you a progress screen each
time a step in the setup has been
completed. Each time you see the
progress screen, click “Next” when you
are ready to move to the next step.
Examining Settings
The Wizard will now examine your
computer’s network settings and
gather information needed to complete
the Router’s connection to the Internet.
When the Wizard is finished examining
your computer, click “Next” to continue.
Multiple Network Adapters
Found Screen
If you have more than one network
adapter installed in your computer, this
screen will appear. If you have more
than one network adapter installed in
your computer, the Wizard will need
to know which adapter is connected
to your modem. Select the network
adapter that is connected to your
modem from the list and click “Next”.
If you are not sure which adapter to
choose, select the adapter at the top
of the list. If you mistakenly choose the
wrong adapter now, you will be able to
choose a different one later.
