Simple Steps For Setup Router
Step 1 – Internet Connection:
To attach the Router from Ethernet port to the ISP Gateway, you may use CAT5e or CAT6 whilst there may be a connection problem of ‘lengthy Distance’.
Instead of doing the above steps you can use a mesh network which is used like a transmitter. But this method works most effective if your router supports mesh networks.
Now use an Ethernet cable, plugged into the router’s WAN or internet Port. An internet port is different from different ports due to the fact its shade could be special.
Check the Router’s LED light turn on:
Router’s LED light will turn on when you successfully activate an internet connection. If lights not turn on/active please make sure you have plugged into the correct port or not.
Ensure internet connection working properly:
Connect any one Router’s port to any device/PC to check whether the internet connection is actively working or not.
If the internet connection is working properly then you can use your wired connection.
Step 2- Configuration of the wireless router gateway
Make sure which type of router connection you have, some of their ISPs use only for home specific and some of them use for office specific. These types are basically different according to their needs.
