- A. Supplemental Information
Use the automatic Internet setup option
You can set up your router automatically, or you can use a web browser to access the
router and set up your router manually. Before you start the setup process, get your ISP
information and make sure that the computers and devices in the network use the
settings described here.
When your Internet service starts, your Internet service provider (ISP) typically gives you
all the information needed to connect to the Internet. For DSL service, you might need
the following information to set up your router:
•
The ISP configuration information for your DSL account
•
ISP login name and password
•
Fixed or static IP address settings (special deployment by ISP; this setting is rare)
If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to provide it. When your Internet
connection is working, you no longer need to launch the ISP login program on your
computer to access the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your router
automatically logs you in.
Installation and basic setup takes about 15 minutes to complete.
To automatically set up your router:
1. Power on your router.
2. Make sure that your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device is connected to the
router with an Ethernet cable (wired) or wirelessly with the preset security settings
listed on the label.
Note: If you want to change the router’s WiFi settings, use a wired connection to
avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.
3. Launch a web browser.
The page that displays depends on whether you accessed the router before:
•
The first time that you set up the Internet connection for your router, the browser
goes to orbilogin.com, and the Orbi login page displays.
•
If you already set up the Internet connection, enter orbilogin.com in the address
field for your browser to start the installation process.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.
The router connects to the Internet.
