Initial configuration Information:
The Technicolor will be posted to you in a 'default' state. It will have a random WiFi name as set on the base of the router.
In most cases, once your service is live and the Technicolor has logged in for the first time, it will be configured in the
correct way for your service – the plastic card on the router will also describe your specific configuration and how it needs
to be connected.
The configuration of the router can be modified via the Control Pages but feel free to talk to staff for further help or
information. Until your service is live, and the router has configured itself, the credentials and IP details on the card will not
match. It will have an IP address of 192.168.1.1 and an admin/engineer user with a password as on the back of the
device.
The details above describe the most common configuration for this router – where you are simply connecting the
Technicolor router to your phone line and using its built in wifi and network ports for your Internet access.
