Looking to set up your Cisco router but not sure where to start? Don't worry, we've got you covered! Follow these simple steps to get your device up and running in no time.

1. First, unbox your Cisco router and connect it to a power source using the provided power adapter.

2. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your router to your modem. Make sure the cables are securely plugged in on both ends.

3. Next, open a web browser on your computer and enter the default IP address of the router (usually 192.168.1.1) in the address bar.

4. You will be prompted to enter a username and password. By default, most Cisco routers have 'admin' as the username and 'admin' as the password. If this doesn't work, check the manual or look online for default login credentials specific to your model.

5. Once logged in, you can configure your network settings such as SSID (network name) and password. Make sure to create a strong password to secure your network.

6. You can also set up port forwarding, parental controls, and other advanced features depending on your needs.

7. Finally, save your settings and restart the router to apply the changes.
