Nowadays, almost all of us can’t live in a place without access on the internet. It’s part of our daily routine. To fulfill our needs and stay connected to our work, family and friends, we avail internet subscription through our Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Using Router

In the steps given below I used Dlink DIR 300 in all the steps and screenshots, If you’re using different router, this may look different but at least you know where to look.

1. The first step is to access the admin control of your router. In the URL field, enter one of the following numbers based on the model of wireless router you use: 192.168.2.1 – Belkin, Microsoft, and SMC, 192.168.0.1 – Qwest (AKA CenturyLink), Netgear, DLink, Senao, Trendnet, 10.0.1.1 –  Apple. In my case I use 192.168.0.1 because I’m using a Dlink router, if your router not included above, search on Google for your router name and include “default IP address” to find the correct information.
