How to Hook Up a D-Link to the Telus Modem?

Since various Telus modem types have only one network connection, just a single computer can link at once, this is a drawback of using a Telus modem setup individually. Even so, a Telus modem can connect up to four wired PCs and additional wireless computers (if the router supports it) while attached to a D-Link router.

Step to Hook Up a D-Link to the Telus Modem

Step 1:  Your Telus modem should be turned off and disconnected via the power source. Close to the modem, place the D-Link router. It must be close to the Ethernet wire you plan to use to connect the two computers.

Step 2:  One end of an Ethernet cable should be connected to the network connection port on the Telus modem, while the other end should be connected to the "Internet" port upon the D-Link router.

Step 3:  The other end of the second Ethernet cable should be connected to the network port designated "1" between the D-Link router and the network port on your personal computer. You are turning on the modem again after reconnecting the electricity.

Upon plugging into and switching on your D-Link router, allow two minutes. Give it a further minute and two to finish booting up. Any computer linked to a network should be able to connect to the Internet. To set up wireless access to the network along with advanced network capabilities, enter "192.168.0.1" into the address bar of a Web browser on the connected computer and then follow the on-screen instructions.

Using a wireless router, you can share a single Internet connection by adding a Wi-Fi access point to an existing local area network. The wireless router and network components like switches and hubs take most of the configuration manually.

The process is distinct if you're joining the router to a network using a current shared Internet connection compared to when you're linking it to a network using a new wireless router. The ports that connect the router to the remaining parts of the network vary based on how the network links to the Internet.
