Attach and position the antennas

Before you install your router, attach the antennas to the router.

Note: Make sure to match the labels on the antennas with the labels on the router. The

antennas must be attached to the correct antenna post on the router.

After you are done attaching the antennas, position the antennas as shown.

User Manual13Hardware Setup

Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi Router

Position your router

The router lets you access your network anywhere within the operating range of your

WiFi network. However, the operating distance or range of your WiFi connection can

vary signicantly depending on the physical placement of your router.

In addition, position your router according to the following guidelines:

•Place your router near the center of the area where your computers and other devices

operate, and within line of sight to your WiFi devices.

•Make sure that the router is within reach of an AC power outlet and near Ethernet

cables for wired computers.

•Place the router in an elevated location, minimizing the number walls and ceilings

between the router and your other devices.

•Place the router away from electrical devices such as these:

- Ceiling fans

- Home security systems

- Microwaves

- Computers

- Base of a cordless phone

- 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz cordless phones

•Place the router away from large metal surfaces, large glass surfaces, insulated walls,

and items such as these:

- Solid metal door

- Aluminum studs

- Fish tanks

- Mirrors

- Brick

- Concrete

The following factors might limit the range of your WiFi:

•The thickness and number of walls the WiFi signal passes through can limit the range.

•Other WiFi access points in and around your home might affect your router’s signal.

WiFi access points are routers, repeaters, WiFi range extenders, and any other

devices that emit a WiFi signal for network access.

User Manual18Connect to the Network and

Access the Router

Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi Router

When your Internet service starts, your Internet service provider (ISP) typically gives you

all the information needed to connect to the Internet. For DSL service, you might need

the following information to set up your router:

•The ISP conguration information for your DSL account

•ISP login name and password

•Fixed or static IP address setting (special deployment by ISP; this setting is rare)

If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to provide it. When your Internet

connection is working, you no longer need to launch the ISP login program on your

computer to access the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your router

automatically logs you in.

The NETGEAR installation assistant runs on any device with a web browser. Installation

and basic setup takes about 15 minutes to complete.

To automatically set up your router:

1. Make sure that the router is powered on.

2. Make sure that your computer or mobile device is connected to the router with an

Ethernet cable (wired) or over WiFi with the preset security settings listed on the

label.

Note: If you want to change the router’s WiFi settings, use a wired connection to

avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.

3. Launch a web browser.

The page that displays depends on whether you accessed the router before:

•The rst time you set up the Internet connection for your router, the browser goes

to and the Conguring the Internet Connectionhttp://www.routerlogin.net

page displays.

•If you already set up the Internet connection, enter http://www.routerlogin.net

in the address eld for your browser to start the installation process.

4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

The router connects to the Internet.

5. If the browser does not display the NETGEAR installation assistant, do the following:

•Make sure that the computer is connected to one of the LAN Ethernet ports or

over WiFi to the router.

•Make sure that the router is receiving power and that its Power LED is lit.

•Close and reopen the browser or clear the browser cache.

•Browse to .http://www.routerlogin.net
