3. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power port located on the back of the router--right next to the antenna. Plug the transformer end of the adapter into a power outlet. Check for a solid "Internet" light on the from of your NetGear DG834G.

4. Launch your Internet browser over on your computer. Type the address: " http://192.168.0.1" into the internet browser's address bar and then hit the "Enter" key.
