| Fine, go through the setup in the documentation and change your SSID to something other than the default so that you can differentiate it from others around you.
That's a start... | |

| You shouldn't have to run the software. You should be able to use the router's firmware to get it properly set up.
This is why I have an off-brand router. It works perfectly. (Hawking) | |
