Determine your Connection Settings
Before you configure the router, you need to know the connection information supplied by your Internet
service provider.
Connecting the VDSL 2 Router to your Network
Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the VDSL Router consists of more than simply plugging
everything together. Because the Router acts as a DHCP server, you will have to set some values within
the Router, and also configure your networked PCs to accept the IP Addresses the Router chooses to
assign them.
Generally there are several different operating modes for your applications. And you can know which
mode is necessary for your system from ISP. These modes are router, bridge, and PPPoE+NAT.
Configuring with Web Browser
It is advisable to change the administrator password to safeguard the security of your network. To
configure the router, open your browser, type "http: //192.168.1.1" into the address bar and click "Go" to
get to the login page.
Save this address in your Favorites for future reference.
At the User Name prompt, type "admin", and the Password prompt, type "admin". You can change
these later if you wish. Click "OK" to login the router and you can start to configure it now.
