You can always use a cat5 ethernet cable and plug it into one of the 4 switch ports on the router to get a more reliable connection.|||Very simple, plug the modem ethernet cable to the router and plug the cable which came with the router to your PC, connected to the router.





The setup is:


Your modem -%26gt; Your router


Your router -%26gt; your PC





After doing so, type http://192.168.1.1 in your address bar which will take you to the router configuration page; there you can hit Wireless tab and apply security to your network; name your SSID wireless network name and clone your PC's MAC Address.





When you're finally done, apply and save the settings, youcan click on Status and see that you are online and everything's ok.





Total setup is about 15 minutes, maybe even less.
