When prompted, enter the administrator credentials for the router (see note below).Point your browser to the IP address of the router (most likely this will be either 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254).Make sure your computer is connected to the wireless network.I highly recommend you log in to your router’s admin page and change the name of your router.
Unfortunately, many people don’t bother changing this from the default, so a lot of them wind up being the router’s brand name such as Linksys.
So, the first step is to make sure you have the name of the current working router. I assume you have a working wireless router setup. And because every wireless router has a different firmware (i.e., the operating system running the hardware), I’m going to keep this as general as possible - it will be so simple that even a third grader could manage to get this working. The wireless routers don’t have to be the same however, you do have to be able to configure these routers. But if your budget is stretched to the max, and you need just a little more reach for your wireless network, you can deploy this tried-and-true method, which only requires a second wireless router and a length of ethernet (Cat5) cable. You could buy repeaters, more expensive routers with longer ranges, or even hardware from Ruckus for this specific purpose. If it’s your only option, it’s very frustrating when you strain the limits of your wireless routers’ reach. For more info, visit our Terms of Use page.
