PC with Wi-Fi Adapter
1.
Attach the antenna from the delivery package. To do this, remove the 
antenna from its wrapper, attach it to the relevant connector on the back 
panel of the router, and then screw the antenna in a clockwise direction to 
the back panel. Position the antenna upward at its connecting joint. This 
will ensure optimal operation of your wireless network.
2.
Connect the power cord to the power connector port on the back panel of 
the router, then plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet or power 
strip.
3.
Turn on your PC and wait until your operating system is completely 
loaded.
4.
Turn on your Wi-Fi adapter. As a rule, modern notebooks with built-in 
wireless NICs are equipped with a button or switch that turns on/off the 
wireless adapter (refer to your PC documents). If your PC is equipped 
with a pluggable wireless NIC, install the software provided with your 
Wi-Fi adapter.
Now you should configure your Wi-Fi adapter.
