Linksys Router Setup

1. To access the web-based utility, launch Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, and enter the Router's default IP address, 192.168.1.1, in the Address field. Then press Enter.

2.A password request page will appear. Leave the User Name field blank. The first time you open the Web-Based Utility, use the default password admin. Then click the OK button.

3. The Setup Tab - Basic Setup
The first screen that appears displays the Setup tab. This allows you to change the Broadband Router's general settings. Change these settings as described here and click the Save Settings button to apply your changes or Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.

4. Internet Connection Type
a. PPPoE. Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) to establish Internet connections. If you are connected to the Internet through a DSL line, check with your ISP to see if they use PPPoE. If they do, you will have to enable PPPoE.

5. User Name and Password. Enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP.

6. Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time. You can configure the Router to cut the Internet connection after it has been inactive for a specified period of time (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been terminated due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Router to automatically re-establish your connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you wish to activate Connect on Demand, click the radio button. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet
connection terminates.

7. Keep Alive: Redial Period. If you select this option, the Router will periodically check your Internet connection. If you are disconnected, then the Router will automatically re-establish your connection. To use this option, click the radio button next to Keep Alive. In the Redial Period field, you specify how often you want the Router to check the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is 30 seconds.

I forgot my password, or the password prompt always appears when I am saving settings to the Router.

·Reset the Router to factory default by pressing the Reset button for 10 seconds and then releasing it. If you are still getting prompted for a password when saving settings, then perform the following steps:
oAccess the Router's web-based utility by going to http://192.168.1.1 or the IP address of the Router. Enter the default password admin, and click the Administrations => Management tab.
oEnter a different password in the Router Password field, and enter the same password in the second field to confirm the password.
oClick the Save Settings button.

Answer 3

Took me over an hour on the phone to India to figure mine out. Turns out the internet connection was not being detected. The router comes with a CD that says "Insert Me First" when what it should say is "Throw this CD away and call support". Seriously, that CD is the worst, just find some time, call support and get it done.

Sorry to be so straight-forward, but have you read the whole manual?

If you had, you'd probably ask a much more specific question.

You got your answer along with the router. :)

Of course you may need to consult your wireless adapter's manual (for laptops, consult laptop's manual) also.

Answer 5

You need to be more specific. What problem are you having? Do you have the User Guide?
