your computer. Plug it into the port labeled INTERNET on the router.
Connect the supplied power adapter into the power port on the back
of the router and then plug into a power outlet or surge protector.
Verify the power light is lit.
Step 3
Plug one end of the included Ethernet cable into the blue port labeled
1 on the back of the router. Plug the other end of this cable into the
Ethernet port on your computer.
Alternatively, you can connect to the router through Wi-Fi. Go to your
computer or mobile device's Wi-Fi settings. Select the network that
is printed on the included Wi-Fi Configuration Note (ex: dlink-a8fa),
then enter the Wi-Fi password also printed on the Wi-Fi Configuration
Note (ex: akbdj19368).
