The quickest way to handle the initialization process is to isolate the router you are configuring. Don't connect it to the rest of the network initially. Just run a cable from a laptop to a lan port on the new router. The router will get a DHCP address on the routers network and you will be able to log in and configure it. Then you can connect it to the rest of the network.
