I. Connect your router

Hello, welcome to the Rock Space.

Note:

If this is the first time you are using a router or you are not very proficient in router settings, please skip the Step 1 and start from Step 2.
If you are very proficient in router settings and know what is the PPPoE user name and password, you can refer to step 1 to copy them from your original router to AX1800 WiFi router. It will save you some time.

Step 1: Import your PPPoE user name and password from your original router.

1. Power on your original and new routers.
2. Connect the WAN port of the original router to a LAN port of the new router using an Ethernet cable.
3. When the WAN and LAN LED indicators of the new router turn solid on for 3 seconds after blinking fast, the PPPoE user name and password are imported to your new router successfully.
