What’s In

The Internet is a really powerful tool. It gives us access to all kinds of

information at a moment's notice—think email, Google search, and Wikipedia. So
there's something a little counterintuitive about only being able to use the Internet
when you sit down at a desktop computer.

What if you could use the Internet from anywhere in your home or office?

 What is It

Routers and Networking

Routers are physical devices that join multiple wired or wireless networks
together. Technically, a wired or wireless router is a Layer 3 gateway, meaning
that the wired/wireless router connects networks (as gateways do), and that the
router operates at the network layer of the OSI model.

Home networkers often use an Internet Protocol (IP) wired or wireless router,
IP being the most common OSI network layer protocol. An IP router such as a
DSL or cable modem broadband router joins the home's local area network (LAN)
to the wide-area network (WAN) of the Internet.

A network router is a small electronic device that allows you build a home
network simply. The home router serves as the core or "centerpiece" of the
network to which computers, printers and other devices can be connected.
Networking with a router helps you to (for example):

 share files between computers

 share an Internet connection between computers
 share a printer
 connect your game console or other home entertainment equipment to
the Internet

Routers are not necessarily required to build a network. For example, you can
connect two computers directly to each other with just a cable (or without wires
in some cases). Home routers offer convenience and easier maintenance as your
network grows.

What is an access point?
An access point is a device that creates a wireless local area network, or
WLAN, usually in an office or large building. An access point connects to a wired
router, switch, or hub via an Ethernet cable, and projects a Wi-Fi signal to a
designated area. For example, if you want to enable Wi-Fi access in your company's
reception area but don’t have a router within range, you can install an access point
near the front desk and run an Ethernet cable through the ceiling back to the server
room.

Installing a Network Router

What You Need:

1. A network router (wireless or wired)

2. Network adapters installed on all devices

to be connected to the router (not
necessary on laptops with built-in
network adapters)

3. A working Internet modem (optional)

4. A cables and connectors

5. A Web browser installed at least

one computer in the network

Network routers receive their power from an ordinary home electrical

socket. When powered on, lights (LEDs) signify the unit is operating.

Network routers must be carefully configured when they are first

installed. Like computers and other devices on the home network, routers
must be set up with IP addresses. Routers also offer optional (but strongly
recommended) security features.
Routers contain built-in software to enable setup. You access this
software through your Web browser on any computer connected to the router.

6
Installing a Network Router

1. Choose a convenient location to begin installing your router such as an open

floor space or table. This does not need to be the permanent location of the
device. Particularly for wireless routers, you may find it necessary to re-position
the unit after installing it as the cables / signals may not reach all areas needed.
At the beginning, it’s better to choose a location where it's easiest to work with
the router and worry about final placement later.

2. Plug in the router's electrical power source, then turn on the router by pushing
the power button.

3. (Optional) Connect your Internet modem to the router. Most

network modems connect via an Ethernet cable but USB connections are
becoming increasingly common. The cable plugs into the router jack named
"WAN" or "uplink" or "Internet." After connecting the cable, be sure to power
cycle (turn off and turn back on) the modem to ensure the router recognizes it.

4. Connect one computer to the router. Even if the router is a wireless model,
connect this first computer to the router via a network cable. Using a cable
during router installation ensures the maximum reliability of the equipment.
Once a wireless router installation is complete, the computer can be changed
over to a wireless connection if desired.

5. Open the router's administration tool. From the computer connected to the
router, first open your Web browser. Then enter the router's address for
network administration in the Web address field and hit return to reach the
router's home page.
Many routers are reached by either the Web address
"http://192.168.1.1" or "http://192.168.0.1" Consult your router's
documentation to determine the exact address for your model. Note that you
do not need a working Internet connection for this step.

6. Log in to the router. The router's home page will ask you for a username and
password. Both are provided in the router's documentation. You should change
the router's password for security reasons, but do this after the installation is
complete to avoid unnecessary complications during the basic setup.

7. If you want your router to connect to the Internet, you must enter Internet
connection information into that section of the router's configuration (exact
location varies). If using DSL Internet, you may need to enter the PPPoE
username and password. Likewise, if you have been issued a static IP
address by your provider (you would need to have requested it), the static IP
fields (including network mask and gateway) given to you by the provider must
also must be set in the router.

7
 8. If you were using a primary computer or an older network router to connect to
the Internet, your provider may require you to update the MAC address of the
router with the MAC address of the device you were using previously.

9. If this is a wireless router, change the network name (often called SSID). While
the router comes to you with a network name set at the factory, you will never
want to use this name on your network. Read How to Change the Router
SSID for detailed instructions.

10. Verify the network connection is working between your one computer and
the router. To do this, you must confirmed that the computer has received IP
address information from the router. See How to Find IP Addresses for a
description of this process.

11. (If applicable) Verify your one computer can connect to the
Internet properly. Open your Web browser and visit a few Internet sites such
as http://compnetworking.about.com/.

12. Connect additional computers to the router as needed. If connecting

wirelessly, ensure the network name (SSID) of each is computer matches that
of the router.

13. Finally, configure additional network security features as desired to guard

your systems against Internet attackers.

How to set up a Wi-Fi network

If you already have high-speed (broadband) Internet service at your house, it's
pretty easy to create your own home wireless network. Commonly known as Wi-Fi,
a wireless network allows you to connect laptops, smartphones, and other mobile
devices to your home Internet service without an Ethernet cable.

8
 To create your own Wi-Fi
network, you'll need a wireless
router. This is the device that will
broadcast the Wi-Fi signal from your
Internet modem throughout your
house. Your Internet service provider
(ISP) may offer you a wireless router
for a small monthly fee. If you've
never set up a Wi-Fi network before,
this may be the easiest option.

Note:

Some internet modems

may already have a built-on https://media.gcflearnfree.org/content/55783df1317fa93160
wireless router, which means 037ffe_06_10_2015/wificonnect_router_image.png
you won’t need to purchase a
separate one.

Connecting the Cables:

Here are the steps in connecting
cables.

1. Once you’ve acquired a

wireless router, you’ll need to
connect it to your existing
internet modem.

2. Connect an Ethernet cable

from your modem to the
wireless router (there is usually
https://media.gcflearnfree.org/content/55783df1 a short Ethernet cable included
317fa93160037ffe_06_10_2015/wificonnect_conn with your wireless router for
ect_image.png this purpose).

3. Plug in the power cable for

wireless router.
4. Wait at least 30 to 60 seconds, and make sure the lights on
your router are working correctly.

CISCO Suggested Router Setup Steps

Before you get started, check your Internet connection. If you don't have a
good internet connection, the router setup experience will be frustrating. The
simplest method is to connect a computer to the modem or gateway device supplied

9
by your Internet service provider (ISP). If your computer detects an Internet
connection, you're ready to set up the router.

Check for an App

Many router manufacturers provide mobile apps or web dashboard that can
be used for both setup and management. With a smartphone app, you may not have
to connect the router to a computer to configure it. Check the documentation that
came with your router to see if an app is available.
Install and extend antennas
If the router has antennas and they're separate from the router box, you'll
need to install them. In addition, you should extend the antennas before beginning
the setup process.

Parts of a Router

Router setup steps

Step 1: Decide where to place the router

The best place for a wireless business router is in an open area of the
workplace, as you'll benefit from even coverage. However, sometimes it's not easy to
find a space out in the open because you must connect the router to a broadband
gateway from your ISP (Internet service provider), which is usually attached to a cable
near an outside wall.

Step 2: Connect to the Internet

Attach the router to a cable - or choose a mesh router, To solve the "long-
distance" problem when connecting a router, you can use a CAT5e or CAT6 cable to
connect the router to the ISP gateway's Ethernet port. Another option is to run
Ethernet cables through the walls of your office to the chosen central location for the
router.
Yet another option is to install a mesh network with a router. A mesh network
allows you to place multiple Wi-Fi transmitters across your home or office, all on one
network. Unlike extenders, which can be used with any wireless router, mesh
networks require a router with this capability built-in.
No matter which option you choose, you'll use a basic Ethernet cable, plugged
into the router's wide-area network (WAN) or Internet port. The Internet port is
typically set apart from other ports by a different color.
Check the router's LED lights, Your router's LED lights tell you if you've
successfully made an active Internet connection. If you don't see lights confirming
such a connection, make sure you've plugged the cable into the correct port.

10
 Test the connection with a device, Confirm that your router has a working
connection by plugging a laptop computer into one of the device ports on the back of
the router. If all goes well, you should be able to begin a wired connection, just as
you did when confirming an active Internet connection.

Step 3: Configure the wireless router gateway

In some cases, ISPs offer customers gateways with built-in routers. In most
cases, these combined devices are not built for business environments, nor do they
have extra ports, security, and other options that allow you to add services and
expand networks as the business grows.
If you have a gateway with an integrated router, you'll have to configure the
gateway to disable the router and pass the WAN IP address—the unique Internet
protocol address that the Internet provider assigns to your account—and all network
traffic through to your new router.
If you don’t take this step, you may run into conflicts that prevent devices
from working properly. You may need to contact your ISP for help with this step.

Step 4: Connect gateway to router

First, turn off the gateway. If there is already an Ethernet cable plugged into
the gateway's local-area network (LAN) port, unplug the cable and plug it into your
router's WAN port. Turn the gateway back on and wait a few minutes for it to boot
up. Plug in the router's power supply and turn it on, again waiting a few minutes.

Step 5: Use app or web dashboard

The easiest way to continue with router setup is to use a mobile app if the
router maker provided one. If there is no app, or you'd rather use the router's web-
based dashboard, connect the router to a computer via an Ethernet cable.
You might find the router's IP address printed on the back of device itself; if
not, type 192.168.1.1, a common router address, into the browser search bar.

Step 6: Create a username and password

To configure the router, you'll need to log in, using its default admin name
and password. You can usually find this information printed on the router itself, or
in an accompanying user manual.
Next, enter the required credentials. Once you're in, you should immediately
create a new username and password. The defaults are usually something like
"admin" and "password1234," which are obviously not secure—so make sure to
change them at the first opportunity.

Step 7: Update the router's firmware

Your router may need an update of the "firmware," or software that operates
it. Update it as soon as possible, since the new firmware might fix bugs or offer new
security protections.
Some routers may download new firmware automatically, but many do not.
You may need to check for updates through the app or the browser interface.

Step 8: Create a Wi-Fi password

Just as most routers come with preassigned admin usernames and
passwords, most also come with preset Wi-Fi usernames and passwords. You’ll likely
be prompted to change the Wi-Fi username and password, but even if you don't see
such a prompt, plan to do so quickly.

11
Step 9: Use auto-configuration tools where possible
If your router is equipped with auto-install features, rely on them to help
complete setup. For example, you should be able to use auto-configuration to
manage IP addresses with the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which
automatically assigns IP addresses to devices. You can always change these
addresses later.

Step 10: Set up security

Many router manufactures provide security functionality to safeguard
network and user privacy. You can login into the web dashboard and enabling added
security features such as firewall, web filtering, and access controls to protect
yourself from malicious traffic. You can also set up virtual private networks (VPNs)
for privacy.

Configure Your Router (by GCFL Learn free.org)

You will need to use your computer to configure your router's default settings.
This includes setting a unique name and password for your wireless network.
1. Using your web browser, enter the router's default IP address into the
address bar, then press Enter. Your router's instructions should include this
information, but some of the most common addresses include 192.168.0.1,
192.168.1.1, and 192.168.2.1.
2. The router's sign-in page will appear. Again, the exact sign-in details should
be included with your router's instructions, but most routers use a standard
user name and password combination, such as admin and password.
3. Your router's settings page will appear. Locate and select the Network Name
setting, then enter a unique network name.

4. Locate and select the Network Password setting, and choose an Encryption
option. There are several types of encryption you can use, but we recommend
WPA2, which is generally considered to be the most secure.
5. Enter your desired password. Make sure to use a strong password to help
ensure no one else can access your network.
6. Locate and select the Save button to save your settings.

That's it! Now you're ready to connect to your Wi-Fi network and make sure
it's working. The process for connecting to a Wi-Fi network will vary slightly
depending on what type of computer or device you're using, here is the three basic
steps.

1. Locate your computer's network settings, and search for nearby Wi-Fi
networks.
2. Select your network, and enter your password.
3. If the connection is successful, open your web browser and try navigating to a
webpage like www.google.com. If the page loads, it means your Wi-Fi connection is
working correctly.
