Let’s begin with the Virena Router:
Virena Router Installation and Connection

connector on the router, then plug the other end into a wall outlet (Figure 2).
Note: The barrel plug end of the power supply has a twist lock connector which can be secured by
rotating it 90 degrees once installed into the Virena Router.
3. Connectivity Verification: After powering on the Virena Router wait five (5) minutes before
confirming the following lights are illuminated for connection purposes (Figure 3).
