I have just bought my first non-domestic router, a CISCO 887VA-K9 which needs basic configuration to get it working. I have a copy of the configuration guide (334 pages) and CP Express user's guide (94 pages) and have spent an hour reading but either they are missing something or my brain is too small to figure out step 1. Would some kind soul please just give me a clue how to get started. Perhaps from where to download a CP Express installation kit for Windows.
Is the only way via a terminal emulator connected via a serial port ? Is there a graphical interface I can use ? Are there any basic tutorials for beginners ? This is probably the only non-domestic routrer I shall work on so I don't want to invest in a full training course. I just need enough to plug in the ISP credentials and set up DHCP.
