Preliminary steps

This advanced network device works as a router, wireless AP, WISP client and universal repeater. Before setting up the router, you must verify that you have high-speed internet access available. The most widely used connection nowadays is broad­ SL or cable. The description used in this  guide is based on that type of connection.

Hardware installation

1. Power off your PC, modem and the router.
2. Find the optimum location for the router. The best place is usually at the center of your wireless network with the antennas in the upright position.Connect one end of the supplied power adapter to the AC input jack located on the rear panel of the router, before plugging the other end to a standard electrical wall outlet.
3. Connect your network devices to the LAN ports of the router. Then using an ethernet cable, connect your modem to the WAN port in order to gain internet access.
4. Finally, power on the router, your PC and modem.

Router configuration

1. Log into the router by accessing the web base utility. To do so, in the browser’s address field enter the default address http://192.168.0.1 
   Note: To access the router wirelessly, look for the SSID, Nexxt_XXXXXX (whereby X represents the last 6 numbers of the MAC address).

2. In this stage, the wireless router web interface will come up. The system will then prompt you to enter the default password. Type admin and click Login to continue. Nebula301plus

3. Next, the Basic settings page will be displayed. In this window, you will be prompted to select the Internet Connection Type, which will depend on the type of connection offered by your existing Internet Service Provider [ISP): PPPoE, for dial-up or □HCP for other broadband connections. You can also set it up to use a Static IP configuration. By default, the router will auto-detect the connection type and set it to the corresponding configuration. You can also setup the wireless password and SSID under the Wireless Settings area [by default, this is blank]. For security purposes, we recommend using a security key at this stage. It must contain at least 8 characters. Click OK to complete the initial set up of the router.

4. Once complete, you will get a successful setup message. If the SSID and password were changed in the previous step, you will need to access the router using the newly assigned parameters.

5. If the computer you used to set up the router can access the internet, it means that you have successfully configured the device, and that other computers in the LAN should also be able to do the same. If they don’t, verify that the Internet Protocol is set to obtain the IP and □NS settings automatically.  To do so, right click Network & Internet Settings followed by Ethernet. Next, click on Network and sharing center > Ethernet > Properties and select Internet Protocol version 4 [TCP/IPv4). Finish by  clicking on Properties and Obtain Obtain □NS server and IP address automatically. Please note that the path indicated above relates to Windows 10. Other operating systems may differ, so make sure to follow the instructions of the operating system you are using. If you later wish to customize your wireless router’s configurations, login to the router and click on the corresponding menu options you desire to customize.
