Home Internet users are usually faced with the problem of distributing Internet traffic to multiple devices. The most common way to do this is to use a router. Moreover, it is not enough just to acquire it. Configuring the router is also important in order to implement the plan. Let us consider the solution to this problem using the example of a TRENDNET device, which is the most convenient in activation and regulation.
Take our router. Configuration usually begins with the use of the installation disc that comes with the kit. Most often, it helps to resolve the issue. So, we connect the provider's cable to the
network adapter of the computer and activate WiFi. At the same time remember safety. Then we insert the disk into the drive and click on the inscription “Installing a router” in the tablet that opens. We go into the setup of the
network card and in the TCP \ IP protocol we turn on obtaining IP addresses automatically.
Sometimes setting up a router is very simple. It is worth doing all of the above, and there is a very high probability that the Internet will work for you. Launch the browser if the page does not open, perform the following action: perform a RESET device by clicking on the appropriate button. We reboot and perform the same operations again. The network has appeared!
If the connection is made using a patch cord cable, it is still easier. Using it we connect the personal computer and the router, the PC itself will issue a special button in the lower right corner, by clicking which you can quickly insert all the parameters mentioned above.
But different things happen in life. It also happens that the installation disk is unusable or damaged. And setting up the router in this way is impossible. What are we going to do?
The procedure for setting up Internet distribution is complicated, but there is a solution. To begin with, we do everything the same as in the previous case. Then we need to get into the settings of the router itself. Open your favorite browser by typing in the address bar: 192.168.1.1. As a username and password, we write the word admin.
Then manually register all the necessary data. Despite the fact that the router itself is a pretty
good antivirus, we set up our own passwords in the PASSWORD section. Now you need to register the WAN: the connection type is PPPoE, the service name is Lanport, the username is the number of the contract, the password is a new password, duplicate the password, automatic reconnection is Always-on.
Now we are watching the STATUS section. After a certain time there should be indicated that the IP addresses are received by all devices. The setup of the TRENDNET router is completed, it remains only to make sure that the Internet is working. It happens that the first time it does not work. We do RESET and repeat everything again.
If you want the network connection to be uninterrupted and stable, then perform another procedure - Wi-Fi authentication. To do this, in the same settings of the router, open the Wireless – Basic section and set the SSID - at least 10 characters long. Now, if you want to connect any device to the network from the router, each of them will need to repeat this procedure.
That's all. We figured out how to configure the router, and made sure that there was nothing complicated about it. Even an ordinary user can do it.
