Hey Colin

 

Have you logged into the router and setup the internet connection?   Best thing to do is go through the wizard and enter your Talk Talk username / password etc..      If you can provide any more details we will help you with this

@Philbert Cant get on internet using D2, usually you can type in 192.168.1.1  but that doesn't work to log in admin.

Hey

 

The address 192.168.1.1 is not always the default for routers, this can vary massively.

 

You would need to find your IP address to know this, on a windows pc cabled in open the  start menu and select RUN  >  type    cmd     >  in the command prompt type     ipconfig     >   look for your IP address, it will be something like 192.168.0.23    whatever it is change the last to 1 and type that into the browser    (eg  192.168.0.1) and that should take you to the router page

 

Once there run the wizard, are you a VDSL or ADSL connection?   If you are UK then its likely VDSL..   if your internet speed is faster than 8mbps then choose VDSL

 

Any hassle just reply back

The router wont be configured to auto connect to the internet, resetting it wont help mate.  You need to get into it and add your talk talk username / password.    check the post above  and if you have any queries add a screenshot and ill help where possible

 

Here is the settings for talk talk UK.. hopefully im correct u are uk?

@Colin53 

 

Im not sure what you mean by saying you are not able to enter the numbers?   The IP address wil be handed to the laptop/desktop from teh router directly.  Once you know your IP you should be able to get onto it ok

 

Ill be online a bit tomorrow and will try to reply where possible, see if you get the IP first
