D-Link Router setup help

Hey guys,

I just bought a D-Link Wireless Router, model WBR-2310. I'm having trouble setting it up thogh. The seup wizrd was Windows only, although the box does say Macintosh Compatible.

I know that I have all the connections right as the LED displays come on, but I'm pretty much flying blind here. I've never set up a router before... what do I need to do to configure my Mac?

I have an iMac PowerPC G3 v. 10.3.9

iMac, Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I see it is a wireless router. No experience there, but see if this helps.

Telling the Router to start work;
Open Safari and type into the address bar http://192.168.1.1
This will take you to the router setup ware.
To get past the first screen type admin and admin again for the password
Now I'm not sure where that software will take you but somewhere in there you will need to supply three pieces of information: You may need to select manually configure to get to the place where you can enter the following information.
your isp's address- http://your.isp.name
your username that you have with your isp
you password that you have with your isp
If your having difficulty making these settings, then your best talking to your ISP or D-link support, as it is not nothing to do with the Mac.
So assuming you are successful entering this information, then:

Click OK or connect, whatever the affirmative button is, and if all goes well
the software should indicate as much
