SETUP AND CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS

1. HOW DO I CONFIGURE MY DIR-518L ROUTER MANUALLY?

name (SSID) and password for your device as printed on the included Wi-Fi Conguration Card.

- Open a web browser and enter the address or 

- The default password for the "Admin" account should be left blank.

- If you have changed the password and can not remember it, you will need to reset the router.

2. HOW DO I RESET MY DIR-518L ROUTER TO FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS?

- Ensure the router is powered on.

- Press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds or more.

 Resetting the router to factory defaults will erase the current conguration settings. To

recongure your settings, log into the router as outlined in question 1, then congure the router.

3. HOW DO I ADD A NEW WIRELESS CLIENT OR PC IF I HAVE FORGOTTEN MY

WIRELESS NETWORK NAME (SSID) OR WIRELESS ENCRYPTION KEY?

- For every PC that needs to connect to the router wirelessly, you will need to ensure you use the

correct Wireless Network Name (SSID) and encryption key.

- Use the web based user interface (as described in question 1 above) to check or choose your

wireless settings.

- Make sure you write down these settings so that you can enter them into each wirelessly

connected PC. You will nd a dedicated area on the back of this document to save this important

information for future use.

4. WHY CAN I NOT GET AN INTERNET CONNECTION?

- Please contact your ISP to make sure the Broadband/3G/Hotspot service has been enabled/

connected by your ISP and that your ISP username and password is correct.

5. WHY CAN'T I REGISTER MY DEVICE WITH mydlink?

- If you experience issues registering this router with your mydlink account, try performing a hard

reset by using an unfolded paperclip to press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds while the

router is powered on. This may be necessary if you've purchased an open box or resold unit.
