The question often arises of what to do after buying a router. How to configure it so that it provides the Internet different devices how to connect it to a computer. This article is intended to address these issues. In it we'll talk about Tp-Link routers. The main points that interest users will be highlighted and illustrated.

It should be noted that there is a wide variety model range routers. The process of connecting cables is similar for most of them, but the setup will be different, since each model has its own firmware version and features of the design and ergonomics of the administration panel. Such information will be provided in a separate article.

• TL-WR940N,
• TL-WR740N,
• TL-WR841N,
• TL-WR842ND,
• TL-WA701ND,
• TL-WR743ND

The router version TL-MR3220 will be used as an example device. Unfortunately, the more popular and widespread TL-WR841N on this moment No.

How to connect a computer to the device via a network cable?

The first task after purchase is to supply power to the router. To do this, connect an adapter to it into a connector called POWER. It is impossible to make a mistake in this case. The other end must be plugged into a power outlet. Some models have a power button. It must be pressed if the lights on the box do not light up immediately. The second task is to connect the router to the computer. A network cable is used for this. One comes as standard. Its end is inserted V network card your computer, and the second part to the LAN connector of the router. Tp-Link routers usually have 2 connectors. They have a characteristic yellow color. You can use any of the connectors. Their number means how many devices can be connected to this router. This could be a TV, set-top box, or something else connected via cable. Wi-Fi network is also allowed to be used. You may find it useful to look at the instructions for connecting your laptop to Wi-Fi.

How to connect TP-Link to the Internet?

The main task of the router is to distribute an Internet connection. So that he can carry out this function, you need to connect a network cable from your provider or ADSL modem to it. Connects cable from the Internet provider to the WAN connector. This connector on the box is available in a single copy. It is usually highlighted in blue.

If the Internet is provided via an ADSL modem, then the cable from the modem is connected to the WAN connector. It is also included in the basic package.

In the image, the manipulations performed look like this.

If all actions are performed correctly, a connection icon will appear on the computer. Most likely, it will have no or limited network access. You need to configure the router. Recommended reading. Most models are configured the same way, so an example can be used TP-LINK settings TL-WR940N. If the provider uses a dynamic type of IP address distribution, the Internet can work without preliminary configuration. Likewise, if you have an ADSL modem installed. All data has already been entered on it, therefore, the Internet is distributed automatically.

Even if you have the situation described above, you will have to change a number of parameters. You will need to set up a Wi-Fi network and set a password for the new wireless connection. Very often, various problems arise when setting up a router. Many are due to the lack of Internet.
