Your connection may take a few hours to authenticate onto the network.
It will go live before midnight on the day of connection, but don’t worry,
we don’t apply any charges until you’re up and running.
This is where you set the password for
connecting to your router in future. The
username will remain admin, you just need to
choose a password. This should be eight
characters or more. Make sure it’s memorable!
This is different to the password to connect
devices to Wi-Fi, we’ll come to that bit later.

Speed Test
The best way to check the speeds you’re receiving is
to use the router interface:
1. Login to the router by typing 192.168.1.1 into the top address bar in your
web browser, using the password you set up earlier
4. Click go and the speed being delivered to your
router will be returned
Reboot your router and ONT - turn them off,
wait for three minutes and turn them back on
again.
If you’re still having problems with an
ethernet connection, try a different ethernet
cable or router port.
If you’re having problems with just one device, it’s
likely to be an issue with the device itself, rather
than the broadband.
Check the speeds being delivered to your router -
have these handy as we’ll probably ask for them. If
you’re connected by Wi-Fi and have problems, try
an ethernet connection and vice-versa.
Some Ethernet cables are incapable of supporting the same speeds as our network.
This is why we ask that you use the cable we provide with your router.
