Before you Start
•Users with DSL providers - If you are using a PPPoE connection, you will need your PPPoE user name and password. If you do not have this information, contact your Internet provider. Do not proceed until you have this information.
•Users with Cable providers - Make sure you unplug the power to your modem. In some cases, you may need to turn it off for up to 5 minutes.
•Advanced Users - If your ISP provided you with a modem/router combo, you will need to set it to “bridge” mode so the DIR-890L router can work properly. Please contact your ISP or refer to the user manual for your modem/router device.
