Installation Guide for Zyxel EE5301
- Connect the router
If you have copper/ethernet connection: Attach the provided network cable to the router’s WAN port – located at the bottom of the device – and connect it to the broadband outlet in your home.
If you have a fibre termination box instead of a traditional broadband outlet, connect the cable there instead. The correct port is usually labelled ”Internet” or ”LAN1”.
If you have fibre directly to the router: Plug in the provided fibre patch cable by inserting the small connector into the router’s SFP module. The SFP module is located at the bottom of the device, behind the cover with a sticker. The larger connector should be connected to your fibre outlet in your home.
Note: Remove the protective caps from the fibre patch cable and any dust caps from the SFP module and ODF outlet before installation.
- Power up the router
Connect the power cable and press the power button, which is located just above the power outlet on the back of the router.
Wait approximately 15 minutes for the router to boot up and download any necessary configurations. In some cases, the startup process may complete faster, but you may need to restart the device.
- Connect your device
Connect your mobile device by scanning the QR code located at the bottom of the router or by manually entering the WiFi password (SSID). You can also connect a computer or game console via cable to one of the LAN ports on the back of the router.
- Done!
