Need Help?

Q1. What should I do if I want to use 1 Gbps WAN/LAN port for internet service?

  • Connect to the 1 Gbps WAN/LAN port with an Ethernet cable. During the quick network setup, select the 1 Gbps WAN/LAN port as the Internet port. Or after the network setup, you can go to Tools > Internet Connection > Internet Port (Tether app) or Internet > Internet Port (web management page) to change it.

Q2. What should I do if I can’t access the web management page?

  • Reboot your router and try again.
  • If the computer is set to a static IP, change its settings to obtain an IP address automatically.
