To set up LAN port aggregation to a LAN device:
1. Set up LAN port aggregation on your LAN device before connecting it to your router.
Note: If your LAN device supports a static link aggregation group (LAG) only, you
must enable static mode on your router before you connect your device to LAN
ports 3 and 4 on the router. See the following step for more information about how
to enable static mode on your router.
For information about how to set up LAN port aggregation on your router or
computer, see the documentation that came with your router or computer.
2. Log in to your router and enable LAN port aggregation:
a. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to
the router network.
b. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
c. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
d. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Ethernet Settings.
The Ethernet Port Advanced Settings page displays.
e. In the LAN Port Aggregation section, select an LAN port aggregation mode (by
default, LAN port aggregation is disabled):
• Enable (LACP-IEEE 802.3ad). After you connect the Ethernet cables (see the
following step), the router communicates with the LAN device that is connected
to LAN ports 3 and 4 on your router, and checks to see if LAN port aggregation
is supported on the LAN device. If LAN port aggregation is supported, the
router automatically trunks LAN ports 3 and 4. If not, LAN ports 3 and 4 work
as independent LAN ports. We recommend that you select this mode unless
your LAN device can support a static LAG only.
• Enable static LAG. If your device supports a static LAG only, select this mode.
Otherwise, we recommend that you to select the Enable (LACP-IEEE 802.3ad)
radio button instead.
f. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
3. Connect your LAN device to LAN ports 3 and 4 on the router.
