HOW TO CREATE A HOME NETWORK
What is a network?
A network is any group of devices that can communicate with each other. A home
network can also include Internet access, which requires a router like this one.
A typical home network may include multiple computers, a printer, a modem, and a
router. A large home network may also have a switch, additional routers, access
points, and many Internet-capable media devices such as TVs, game consoles, and
web cameras.
Modem Connects a computer or a router to your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Your ISP may have provided one. The modem is a device that connects to a phone
jack or your cable TV outlet.
Router Connects your wireless and wired network devices to each other and to the
modem (and to your ISP).
Switch Allows you to connect several wired network devices to your home
network. Your router has a built-in network switch (the Ethernet ports). If you
have more wired network devices than available Ethernet ports on your router,
you will need an additional switch to consolidate the wired connections.
How to set up a home network:
Purchase the proper equipment. For a network that includes Internet access,
you’ll need:
Computers with an Ethernet port or wireless networking capabilities
A modem for connecting to your ISP (typically supplied by your ISP)
A router to connect your computers with each other and to the modem
Internet service to your home, provided by an ISP (Internet Service Provider)
Make sure that your modem is working. Your ISP can help you set up your
modem and verify that it’s working correctly.
Set up your router. See “How to install your router” on page 6.
To connect a computer or other network device to the network, see “How to
connect a computer to your network” on page 0 and “How to connect other
devices” on page .

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NETWORK’S NAME AND PASSWORD
You can change the name (SSID) and password of your network, but if you do so,
all wireless devices connected to your router will lose their Internet connection
until you reconnect them using the new network name and password.
To change your router’s name and password:
Log into Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See “How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi” on
page 7.)
• Under Router Settings, click Wireless.
Click the Wireless tab, then click Edit.

of through the Internet-based Linksys Smart Wi-Fi.
To connect to your router while you are on your home network:
Open your computer’s web browser.
Go to www.linksyssmartwifi.com and log into your router using the router
password you created when you installed your router. (When there is no Internet
connection, this address re-routes directly to your router.)
HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR WIRELESS CONNECTION SPEED
Make sure that your router is in a good location:
For the widest coverage area, install your router near the center of your home, and
near the ceiling, if possible.
Avoid placing the router on or near metal objects (file cabinets and metal furniture),
reflective surfaces (glass or mirrors), or masonry walls.
Any obstruction can weaken the wireless signal (even non-metallic objects), so the
fewer obstructions between the router and the wireless device, the better.
Place the router in a location away from other electronics, motors, and fluorescent
lighting.
Many environmental variables can affect the router’s performance, so if your
wireless signal is weak, place the router in several locations and test the signal
strength to determine the ideal position.
If possible, upgrade wireless network interfaces such as wireless network cards
in computers from older wireless standards to 802.n. If a wirelessly networked
device uses an older standard, the performance of the entire wireless network may
be slower.
If your router is a dual-band router, split your network traffic so the high-bandwidth
traffic uses the 5 GHz band. For more information, see “How to get the most out of
your dual-band router” on page 22.
