- To open the management console, type http://192.168.1.1 into the address bar of your web browser.

- Username: admin
- Password: password
- Select Wireless Settings from the router console. Write down the SSID and WEP key (they'll be needed later).

From the list of SSIDs in the Select Network screen, select the SSID that you wrote down in step 3. - If your router is not configured to broadcast its SSID
Select OTHER from the list on the Select Network screen. Then use the Xbox Dashboard virtual keyboard to enter the SSID that you wrote down in step 3. - From the Wireless Settings screen, select Network Mode as Infrastructure. Then select Security Type and configure the Xbox Compatible wireless bridge with the same security settings (NONE, 64-bit WEP, or 128-bit WEP) as the wireless router.
- Press A to save the new settings, and then press B to go back.
- From the Wireless Status screen, check that your Xbox console is connected to the network name (SSID) specified in step 3. Press B twice to go back.
