Use the interactive Internet setup process
Before you start the interactive Internet 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.
The interactive Internet setup process takes about 10 minutes to complete.
To use the interactive Internet setup process:
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 so
the WiFi device that you are using for setup is not disconnected when the new WiFi
settings take effect.
3. Launch a web browser.
If your browser displays a security message, see Resolve a browser security warning
on page 28.
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.
If your browser does not display the web page or your router does not connect to
the Internet, see the following troubleshooting suggestions.
