4. Attach the WiFi and modem antennas
Attach the three WiFi antennas (included) and two modem antennas to the connectors. Antennas are jointed,
which enables you to position them for optimal signal. To attach, hold the antenna straight and twist the base
of the antenna to connect, folding the joint if needed. NOTE: Ensure that the router antennas are not near metal
or other RF reflective surfaces.
Examples of suggested antenna orientations:
5. Connect the power source
Plug the provided power supply (54V DC wall adapter) into an electrical outlet. Then connect the power supply to
the router.
Ensure power is switched on:
O = OFF
– = ON
When you set the power switch to the ON ( – ) position, watch for the power LED to illuminate.
6. Connect to a computer or other network equipment
Connect wirelessly to the WiFi broadcast or with an Ethernet cable connected to your computer and then
plugged into one of the Ethernet LAN ports (numbered 1–12).
The default WiFi network names broadcast are "AER3100-xxx" and "AER3100-xxx-5g", where "xxx" is the last
three characters of your router's MAC address (this is the SSID on the product label). To connect to the WiFi,
you will need to input the DEFAULT PASSWORD when prompted. The DEFAULT PASSWORD is provided on the
product label found on the bottom of your router.
NOTE: The product label below is an example only: your DEFAULT PASSWORD and SSID will be unique.
