How to set up a New ASUS RT-AC68U Wireless Router

1. There are 3 cables that will need to be connected:

  • Connect an Ethernet cable from your cable/DSL modem to the WAN port on your ASUS router; labeled with a globe with a ring around it (this port is blue).
  • Connect another Ethernet cable from your computer to any one of the LAN ports on the router; labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4 (these ports are yellow).
  • Finally, connect the power cable to the wall outlet and to the DCIN port on the router (shown in green).
  • Once everything is connected, press the power button on the back of the router (shown in red).

2. Once the router is powered on, open a web browser. The ASUS setup page may automatically open. If so, continue to step 4 of this guide. If not, type 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and then press Enter.
