Connecting The DI-524 Wireless Router
To Your Network
A. First, connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back panel of the
DI-524 and then plug the other end of the power adapter to a wall outlet or power
strip. The Power LED lights up indicating proper operation.
B. 1. Power off your Cable or DSL modem; devices that do not have a on/off switch and
will require you to unplug the power adapter. Now, the DI-524 should be powered on
and the Cable / DSL modem should be turned off.

3. Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable to the WAN PORT on the back panel of
the DI-524. The WAN LED light will illuminate to indicate proper connection. If the
WAN LED is not illuminated, please go back to step B1 and repeat the steps.
C. Insert an Ethernet cable to
available Ethernet port on the network adapter in the computer you are using to
configure the DI-524. The LED light for LAN Port 1 illuminates to indicate proper
connection. (Note: The LAN Ports on the DI-524 are Auto-MDI/MDI-X. Meaning you
can use a straight-through or crossover-Ethernet cable in the LAN Ports.)
D. Computers equipped with 802.11g wireless adapters will be able to connect to the
DI-524. The DWL-630 AirPlus G Wireless Cardbus Adapter and the DWL-510
AirPlus G Wireless PCI Adapter will be able to connect out of the box with the
router using their default wireless settings.
