How to use

Unpack the router and connect it to your modem or internet source using an Ethernet cable, then connect a power adapter and switch the device on. Access the web-based administration interface from a connected computer or mobile device by opening a browser and entering the router’s default IP address as specified in the quick start guide. Follow the on-screen setup wizard to set an administrator password, configure the wireless network name (SSID) and password, and apply basic security settings. Connect client devices to the configured SSID and verify internet access. For advanced options, navigate through the administration menus to adjust firewall rules, DHCP settings, and device management.

Recommendations

Place the router in a central, elevated location away from thick walls and large metal objects to optimize 2.4 GHz coverage. Keep firmware up to date by checking Draytek’s support site periodically and use WPA2 authentication with a strong passphrase. For mixed wired and wireless environments, connect stationary high‑bandwidth devices by Ethernet to reduce wireless congestion.
