Connect your laptop or PC into one of the blue ports and open a web page.

You will be presented with a D Link page for the router.

On the left chose wireless setup then go to manual setup at the bottom.

Ignore the Pin section and go to the box with the SSID which by default will be dlink and change it to one of your choice.

Then choose your security option which should be the bottom one from the drop down WPA/WPA2 and the Network key box will appear and in here you put a password with a minimum length of 8 characters.

Then click save settings and wait for it to finish remove the ethernet cable and look for your newly named network and connect using your password.

You shoulod be connected and it should have taken between 5 and 10 minutes to achieve this and the disk will make a nice coaster.

thanks for the replys.

the problem is, i can't access the router even when i'm hooked up with a wire. it's as if there's something preventing, either on my pc or the router, from letting them talk to each other. i've tried disabling every thing on my pc (firewall wise) to see if that was preventing it, but nothing.

when i first attempted the install my router, the internet light on the router would never be a steady green, regardless of power downs and restarts, it was only when i swapped pc's and rebooted the router i got a steady green light.

i'll attempt that from the pc that can connect and see what happens.
