Getting Started with NETGEAR genie

N150 4-Port Wireless Router JNR1010

Router Setup Preparation

You can set up your router with the NETGEAR genie automatically, or you can use the genie

menus and screens to set up your router manually. Before you start the setup process, get

your ISP information, and make sure the computers and devices in the network have the

settings described here.

Use Standard TCP/IP Properties for DHCP

If you set up your computer to use a static IP address, you must change the settings so that it

uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

Gather ISP Information

If you have DSL broadband service, you might need the following information to set up your

router and to check that your Internet configuration is correct:

• The ISP configuration information for your DSL account

• ISP login name and password

• Fixed or static IP address settings (special deployment by ISP; this situation is rare)

When your Internet service starts, your Internet service provider (ISP) typically gives you all

the information needed to connect to the Internet. If you cannot locate this information, ask

your ISP to provide it. When your Internet connection is working, you no longer need to

launch the ISP’s login program on your computer to access the Internet. When you start an

Internet application, your router automatically logs you in.

Wireless Devices and Security Settings

Make sure that the wireless device or computer that you are using supports WPA or WPA2

wireless security, which is the wireless security that the router uses.
