Set up an IPTV port
You can set up the router to create an Internet Protocol television (IPTV) port that can
lease an IP address from your IPTV service provider. Use this feature only if you subscribe
to an IPTV service and your IPTV service requires an intranet address.
Some IPTV ports cannot work behind NAT because the IPTV port requires an IP address
within the Internet service provider's network (intranet address). You can set up a bridge
connection from the WAN port to the LAN port. The LAN port becomes an IPTV port
with direct access to the WAN without going through NAT.
To configure an IPTV port:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
mesh network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
