Setup the router via browser: 

  Please make sure that the wireless function on your laptop is already enabled. 

  Check the device bottom label, and find the router’s default SSID (PredatorW6m-YYYY)  

and password and then connect.  

  Open the browser on your laptop/desktop, and input the device web admin URL:  

http://acer-connect.com

 or IP: http://192.168.76.1 

  The device will automatically redirect to a quick setup wizard. Follow the easy 1-2-3 steps 

and get ready to access the internet. 

 

Note: The admin login password requires modification within the setup wizard for 

first-time use. Please create a strong password and keep it in a safe place. (The 

new password cannot be the same as the prior one.) 

 

Note: The router web admin portal will automatically lock after five consecutive 

incorrect attempts. You have to power cycle the router to unlock the web admin. 

 

Note: The SSID WiFi password can’t be the same as the admin login password.    

 

Both the App & browser can help the router to do a quick setup. Web UI can execute 

all functions and settings of the router. Mobile App allows the user to remotely control 

some functions of the router and receive notifications.
