Set up the BR200 router to connect to the LAN of an existing
router
If another router provides the Internet connection, connect the BR200 router to the LAN
that is broadcast by the other router and set up the Internet connection for the BR200
router.
After you physically connect the router, you can let the NETGEAR installation assistant
set up your router automatically. By default, the DHCP client of the BR200 router is
enabled so that the BR200 router receives an IP address from the other router in your
network.
The NETGEAR installation assistant runs on any device with a web browser. Installation
and basic setup takes about 15 minutes to complete.
