Setting Up a Wireless Network Connection
It is highly recommended that you first verify that your computer can connect to the Internet
using an Ethernet connection before configuring your wireless network. You must currently
have access to an Internet service in your home before you can set up a wireless network
connection. Also, make sure your computer and the SBR-AC1200P are connected through an
Ethernet connection.
Choose one of the following options to set up your wireless network connection:
Launch the SBR-AC1200P Quick Start Wizard
Set Up a Wireless Network Using Your Computer

connect to your wireless network. See Test Your Wireless Network Connection (page 29) for
more information.
