For information on the D-Link DSL-2640B wireless router, please see Getting started with the D-Link DSL-2640B.

Before installing the D-Link DSL-2640B wireless router it's necessary to establish a connection via the ethernet cable first.


















Follow the steps below to connect via ethernet:

  • Connect the power cable.
  • Connect the blue ethernet cable to your computer and router.
  • Connect the DSL cable to the ADSL port and then to the microfilter which should be connected to your main telephone socket.
  • Make sure that the power, ethernet and ADSL lights are switched on.
  • Open your web browser and type 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.
  • Type admin in the username and password fields before clicking Log in.






















You should now see the ADSL Setup page. Click the Setup Wizard button.























Click Next on the WELCOME TO D-LINK SETUP WIZARD screen.




















You can change the router factory default password from admin to anything you like. Click Skip if you want to leave this for now. Remember that this will be restored to factory settings if you reset the router.

















Enter the following settings:

  • Country: United Kingdom
  • ISP Provider: Others
  • VPI: 0
  • VCI: 38
  • Connection Type: PPPoA VC-Mux




















Enter your broadband username and broadband password, then confirm your broadband password.


















Now restart the router to save your changes.

















Once the router has restarted, click OK. The information sign will now change and say Internet Online.
