Fast Setup provides a simple method of doing an initial setup from a PC. Your router is shipped in factory default mode.

Your PC must be set to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP.
Plug the PC into your router’s Ethernet interface.
When the Power LED is flashing green, use a web browser, enter http://192.168.0.1 to access your router. On the setup screen, select, Getting Started.
Once connected, fill in the required fields, apply changes to save and exit. Your configuration changes will be immediately applied to the router
The router’s web configuration sign-on screen will be displayed. Using the credentials you previously defined in Step 4, you can now access your router’s full configuration.
