Open you internet explorer.
In your address bar type 192.168.0.1 (Username & password can be found on the Device label which is located on the base of the modem referred to as GUI username & GUI password)

To setup the modem to router mode go to Gateway;

Click on WAN and in the Operation Mode section select NAT mode (Routing, NAT, DHCP, Firewall).

How will multiple users affect my Internet speed?

$
0
0

Each device on your network shares bandwidth. The more devices, the more your Wi-Fi speed is divided up and the slower the speed for each device. For better speed, check how many users and devices are on your network and what they download/upload. Activities that use the largest amount of data are mainly watching movies, streaming video or music, online gaming, video chatting and downloading large files.

Let’s face it, sharing a big cake is always better. The bigger the bandwidth of your internet connection, the more data can come streaming in to your home. Faster downloads, more people and devices connected at the same time, less of the spinning wheel of doom, more of the internet.

For example, 100Mbps Internet speed package for 2-3 users. For more users, gaming, or higher data traffic, we recommend to choose 250Mbps package or higher. Check out our Internet offers here.

Eliminate Wi-Fi interference

If you are experiencing WiFi that is dropping, most likely you are being effected by interference from other networks. WiFi 2.4Ghz frequency is commonly used across devices such as garage door openers and home security sensors and it’s probably the frequency your neighbours’ WiFi are using it means if your network is dropping it may be conflicting with other networks and devices which are using the same frequencies.

Check out the below video on what can affect Internet speed:

In order to reduce Interference’s, you need a dual band modem.

Our high end ARRIS  dual band modem transmits both frequencies, choosing 5 GHz will give you less interference and better WiFi performance. If you do not have our ARRIS modem yet, check out our Flexi Bundles.

In order to benefit from 5Ghz, your end devices such as; Laptops, Tablets & Mobile phones need to support 5Ghz band. If your devices cannot see the 5Ghz WiFi that means you either do not have a dual band modem or your device does not support it.

Capture4

If your older Laptop cannot support 5Ghz, you can buy a 5Ghz WiFi USB from a computer store which will give you access to higher and less crowded frequencies. For more information on how to get the dual band ARRIS modem, check our Flexi Bundles by click here.

No internet connection on all of my devices.

  • Shut down your computer, or restart your devices connected to the modem (mobile phone, tablets…).
  • Turn your modem back on. Wait few minutes for your modem to obtain a connection.
  • Turn your computer or devices  back on, and re-check if  your internet connection is back.

1. Check your TV and setup

  • Look at the front of your set top box, the Power light should be green and a channel number should be displayed.
  • Make sure your TV is on and set to view the correct input source. E.g if your HDMI cable is connected to HDMI 1, your TV should be set to HDMI 1.

2. Check your cables

  • Your set top box should be connected to your TV with a HDMI cable.
  • Make sure both ends are connected securely. The best way to do this is to unplug and reconnect each end of the cable.
  • If a spare HDMI socket is available on your TV try connecting to that instead.
  • If this doesn’t help, try using a spare HDMI cable or try the HDMI cable with a different device.

3. Restart your set top box

  • Use the power switch on the back to switch off your box.
  • Leave it for 15 seconds before switching it back on.
  • Turn the box ON again.

How does 5Ghz work

$
0
0

WiFi can operate with 2 frequencies, the 2.4Ghz and the 5Ghz. The numbers 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz refer to two different “frequencies” that your Wi-Fi can use to transmit the WiFi radio signals.

  • The biggest difference between the two is speed. 5Ghz is faster than 2.4Ghz due to using higher frequencies.
  • The 2.4 GHz band is a pretty crowded place, because it’s used by more than just Wi-Fi. Old cordless phones, garage door openers, baby monitors, and other devices tend to use the 2.4 GHz band. Because so many devices use the 2.4 GHz band, the resulting congestion can cause dropped connections and slower-than-expected speeds. The 5 GHz band is much less congested, which means you will likely get more stable connections & higher speeds.
  • 2.4 GHz has three non-overlapping channels to work with, while 5 GHz has twenty-four. This makes 5Ghz less prone to interference from other WiFi broadcasting devices which will result in better WiFi experience.
  • A dual band modem combines the best of both 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz and can broadcast with both frequencies.
