Cudy Quick Installation Guide
Brand: Cudy
Introduction
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for quickly installing and setting up your Cudy Wi-Fi router.
Note: If your internet connection uses a direct Ethernet cable from the wall (instead of a DSL/Cable/Satellite modem), connect the Ethernet cable to the router's WAN port and skip steps 1, 2, and 3.
Before You Begin
Step 1: Turn off the modem and remove the battery if it has one.
Step 2: Connect router's INTERNET Port to DSL/Cable Modem/Ethernet.
Step 3: Turn on the modem and wait about 2 minutes for it to restart.
Step 4: Connect the power adapter to the router. Wait 1 minute until the system LED changes from flashing to solid on (red or blue), indicating system startup is complete.
