Sure! Here's a step-by-step guide to setting up the D-Link DIR-866L (AC1750) router:
1. Unplug the power to your DSL or Cable modem.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Internet port of the router to the Ethernet port on your DSL or Cable modem.
3. Connect another Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on your computer to one of the LAN ports on the router.
4. Plug the power back into your DSL or cable modem and wait for about one minute.
5. Plug the power adapter into your router and connect it to a power outlet.
6. After the router has powered up, verify that the Power (green) and Internet (orange or green) LEDs are both lit.
Now, let's proceed with the router configuration:
1. Open a web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, or Safari) and enter http://dlinkrouter.local./ or enter the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1).
2. When the Welcome screen appears, click Next to continue.
3. The router may automatically detect your Internet connection type. If not, select your Internet connection type and click Next.
4. Enter the necessary information based on your Internet connection type (PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP, or Static IP) and click Next.
5. Create a name for your Wi-Fi network and a password for both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. Click Next to continue.
6. Follow the Setup Wizard to finish configuring your DIR-866L router. Make a note of your settings when you see the summary screen.
That's it! You have completed the router installation and configuration process. The Internet LED will turn green, indicating that your router is connected to the Internet.
