If you cannot connect to the wireless router, check the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) properties

in the Network Connections section of your PC Control Panel. They should be set to obtain
both

IP and DNS server addresses automatically. See your computer documentation.

Change Password

For security reasons, the wireless router has its own user name of admin with a password
that defaults to password. You can and should change the password to a secure password
that is easy to remember. The ideal password contains no dictionary words from any
language and is a mixture of upper-case and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols. It
can be up to 30 characters.

Note:

The wireless router user name and password are not the same as

the user name and password for logging in to your Internet
connection. See
