Restarting the Network

Once you’ve set up your computers to work with the router, you must reset the network for the

devices to be able to communicate correctly. Restart any computer that is connected to the firewall.

After configuring all of your computers for TCP/IP networking and restarting them, and

connecting them to the local network of your wireless router, you are ready to access and

configure the router.
