Title: Switching to DIR-825 from Linksys WRT310N
Post by: bojack01 on October 01, 2009, 05:34:26 PM

I'm switching from a Linksys WRT310N to an DLink-825. My network is all set up wireless and I'm not sure what to do. My computer has a Linksys WMP300N wireless adapter plugged in it and I'm trying to use it to the DIR-825. How do i go by swapping the two routers. My OS is Vista Ultimate 64bit SP1. I need a step by step on how to do it without using a wire between my computer to DIR-825. My computer is not set up to use a wire and i don't know how to set it up if I need to

Unfortunately, to set up a new DIR router, you will need to connect an Ethernet router to:

- Configure the wireless network SSID and security (WEP, WPA or WPA2) passphrase

- Do any router firmware updates, if you choose to do these.


I would first download the DIR-825 manual PDF from D-Link's support site before you attempt to replace your WRT310.
