Your computer must be set up to use DHCP to get its TCP/IP configuration from the modem
router. This is usually the case. For help with DHCP, see the documentation that came with
your computer, or see the link to the online document in
“Preparing a Computer for Network
Access” in Appendix C
.
Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If
you cannot locate this information, you can ask your ISP to provide it.
Using the Smart Wizard to Set Up Your Router
For first-time installation of your modem router, refer to the
NETGEAR Router Setup Manual
. The
Setup Manual explains how to launch the NETGEAR Smart Wizard on the
Resource CD
to step
you through the procedure to connect your router, modem, and computers. The Smart Wizard will
assist you in configuring your wireless settings and enabling wireless security for your network.
After initial configuration using the Setup Manual, you can use the information in this Reference
Manual to configure additional features of your wireless router.
For installation instructions in a language other than English, see the language options on the
Resource CD.
Note:
The Smart Wizard cannot detect a PPTP connection with your ISP. If your ISP uses
this protocol, then you must configure your connection manually (see
“Viewing or
Manually Configuring Your ISP Settings” on page 1-6
).
