If  you  are  connecting  the  D-Link  router  to  another  router  to  use  as  a  wireless  access  point  and/or  switch,  you  will  have  
to do the following before connecting the router to your network: • Disable UPnP ™
• Disable DHCP 
•  Change  the  LAN  IP  address  to  an  available  address   on  your  network.  The  LAN  ports  on  the  router  canno t 
accept a DHCP address from your other router.
To connect to another router, please follow the steps below: 1.   Plug  the  power  into  the  router.  Connect  one  of  your  computers  to  the  router  (LAN  port)  using  an  Ethernet  cable. 
Make  sure  your  IP  address  on  the  computer  is  192.168.0.xxx  (where  xxx  is  between  2  and  254).  Please  see  the  
Networking Basics  section for more information. If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings 
before  making  any  changes.  In  most  cases,  your  comp uter  should  be  set  to  receive  an  IP  address  automatically  in 
which case you will not have to do anything to your computer.
