Moreover, before you start with the setup, you’ll need to have the following equipment ready:
- Your D’Link router
- Ethernet cable(s)
- Computer system
- DSL MODEM
Beginning with the D’link Router Setup process using dlinkrouter.local
The D’Link setup process starts with making the hard-wired connections between your networking devices and the computer system. Ethernet cables here act as the medium of communication between your networking devices.
To use them, here are some steps you would need to follow:
Connecting your router and devices
- Connect the main DSL line to your DSL MODEM. Also, connect the MODEM to the router using an ethernet cable. Connect one end of the ethernet cable to the LAN port of the MODEM while you connect the other end to the LAN port of the D’Link router.
- Now, connect the power cords to all your devices and the power adapters to the electrical outlet. Power on the devices and allow them to boot up so you can proceed with the setup process.
Accessing http://dlinkrouter.local For D’link Router Setup
- Once your networking devices have been powered up, go to the wireless networks section of your computer and locate the router SSID. Select the SSID that corresponds to your D’Link router and click on the Connect button you see to connect to the network. This step can be followed when you are connecting wirelessly to the network.
- If you are connected wirelessly, you won’t need to connect to the network manually like you did above. The computer will automatically detect the router network and you can skip the step mentioned.
- Now, open a web browser of your choice on your computer system and in the address bar, type http://dlinkrouter.local and press Enter. You can also enter the default IP address 192.168.0.1 in the address bar and access the Dlinkrouter.local setup page.
Network settings configuration
- When you reach the main dashboard of your D’Link router, it will ask you to enter the default username and the password details. You can click on the username and the password text fields and use the default credentials that have been shared at the start of this blog.
- Once entered, click on the login button to reach the main page of your D’Link router device. This d link router admin page will give you access to the Dlink router configuration setup settings.
- Once you are on the main page, click on the basic internet settings button. The following window will show you the options for selecting a new SSID for your D’link wireless network. Type an SSID which you can remember easily.
- In the wireless security key text field, type a password of at least 8 characters and set the wireless encryption settings to WPA2-PSK. Click on the “Save” button and you will be directed to the next page.
- In the next window, you will need to configure the admin credentials. Type in the custom username for your D’Link router and the default password for accessing your device in the future. These details will be used to access the device settings. Make sure you keep the password and username such that you can remember them easily yet not too easy to be cracked by just anyone. You can also record the same, for future reference, if you want.
- The final screen will display a summary of the network settings which you have just configured. You can either record the details or print them for future reference.
