  1. Read the instruction manual!, if you dont have it give us your model # dlink isnt very specific.


  2. your router should have came with a cd. run that cd and you should be able to make a password for it. also some routers already have passwords. soe of them are on the bottom of the router. its very important u get a key/password for ur router because ur neighbors can use your connection which will make your computer slower

  3. Open a browser and log in to the router.  Dlinks are usually at http://192.168.0.1 and the default login is username admin, password left blank.

    If that doesn't work, open a command prompt and type ipconfig.  The default gateway is your router address.

    Go to the wireless section and look for the security area.  Set a wpa passphrase (that you'll remember).

    Look at your doc for step by step instructions, or online at dlink.com for your specific router.


  4. If you have installation CD it will take you there step by step ,

    click on security and it is mostly self explained after you select

    SSID or sdd ,
