    Setup

    Make sure all equipment is unplugged and turned off before you start. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into the port labeled "Internet" on the wireless adapter and insert the other end into the Ethernet port on the rear of your modem.

    Configure Linksys

    Plug a computer into one of the Ethernet ports on the wireless adapter that you will use to set up the network's settings. Turn on the modem and router. Follow the Linksys setup wizard to adjust the settings of your wireless network. Make sure to set a WPA or WEP password to protect your network. When you are satisfied with your settings, click "Apply" and "Save."

    Confirm Setup

    Use a computer with a wireless card to connect to the network. Open the computer's network settings and search for your wireless network. Enter in the name of the network and the wireless password. The computer should be able to connect to the Internet.
