D Link Router Setup: Learn how to Configure D Link Router


I posted some articles about D Link routers a while ago, but not how to configure the router from the start. What I mean is to setup D Link router out of the box. I’ll just cover how to block websites, change the router password and how to know if somebody connected in your wireless network.


To learn how to configure D Link router, I write down the steps and include a screenshot for you. Please note that I am using my old D Link DIR 300 router to make this tutorial.

The procedure is almost the same as other models of D Link since I am using the wizard setup. This is an easy and simple way to configure your router.

How to Set up D Link Router?

Step 1: Connect to the Router

  • Wired Connection: Connect your computer to the D-Link router using an Ethernet cable. Plug one end of the cable into your computer and the other into one of the router’s LAN ports.
  • Wireless Connection: If you’re connecting via Wi-Fi, use the default network name (SSID) and password printed on a label on the back or bottom of the router.

Step 2: Access the Router’s Web Interface

Ok, let’s start, First step is to access the admin page of the router. Open up your favorite browser and type in 192.168.0.1 in the address bar, this is the default IP address of D Link router. This will open the admin page of the router asking to enter the username and password. The default username is “admin” without the quote and the password, leave it blank, then press enter or click the login button.  If it doesn’t open you can check the back of your router.
