Estimated time for this step: 10 minutes
1. Attach the two wireless antennas included in your kit to your
router as shown. The antennas should be attached
finger tight and positioned straight up for the best reception.
2. Make sure that the end of the gray phone cord is still con-
nected to the white (DSL) port of the DSL filter you
prepared in Step 1. Take the free end of the gray phone
cord and plug it into the DSL port on the back of the
router, color-coded in gray.
3. Connect the small, cylindrical end of the power adapter to
your wireless router port labeled “Power.” Plug the other
end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet.
4. Move the router’s power switch to the “ON” position.
The DSL light at the front of the modem will turn green
in about five minutes. Wait until the green light becomes
steady, not blinking.
Important: The DSL light must be
solid green before you proceed to Step 3.
To connect an Ethernet computer, continue with #5.
To connect a wireless computer, skip to #6.

TIP
WHAT IF THE DSL LIGHT DOESN’T TURN SOLID GREEN OR
CONTINUES TO BLINK?
Check that you’ve connected everything correctly and that the
router’s power light is on. You may also want to make sure the
electrical outlet and phone jack are working.
