Hello,
My router came with NO INSTALLATION CD enclosed in the box. How can I set it up to work with my laptop?

You don't need a installation disk to set up the router. To set up the router you need to find its ip address which you can find by using the command in a DOS box ipconfig /all You then enter this address into your browser address bar, then a password box should pop up and you enter the router password and user name which is usually admin in both cases. You can then enter the ISP username and password and other information which can normally be found on the ISP web site.
I have given you a general guide of what you need to know, post back here if you get stuck on any particular part.

Google the Brand of router you have for the IP type that in, more than likely will not have to put in a password but check under your router it should tell you the info you need.

There should be a SN and all that good jazz look for the Login and Password obviously and go from there.

From there you can setup and config your router to your desire.
