The '''TP-Link EX-921v''' is a VoIP router that integrates '''Wi-Fi 6E''' technology and supports fibre broadband connections through an '''SFP''' (Small Form-factor Pluggable) module. 

=Configuration=
'''If you pick up the device from the NCF office, it should already be configured for your account.''' You can follow our instructions to configure the modem yourself, or contact [mailto:support@ncf.ca support@ncf.ca] if you would like to bring your modem to our office to be configured.

=Quick Setup=
'''1.''' Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet and then into the back of your EX-921v. A power bar with a surge protector is recommended. Power-up the modem by pressing the ON/OFF button on the back.

'''2.''' Connect a computer directly to the modem by plugging one end of an Ethernet (RJ-45) cable into any port labeled LAN on the modem, and then connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on your computer.

'''Note:''' We do not recommend configuring your modem over a Wi-Fi connection. However, if this is your only option, locate the '''default Wi-Fi''' information on the back of your modem and connect your device (such as a mobile phone, tablet, or laptop) to the default SSID, then enter the corresponding Wi-Fi '''password''' or '''PIN''' to proceed with the configuration.

'''3.''' Open the browser of your choice and access the modem’s web interface by entering '''http://192.168.0.1''' or '''http://tplinkwifi.net''' into the address bar, then press '''Enter''' or click on '''Go.''' You will be prompted to '''create a new password and confirm it''' for security purposes. After saving the new password, the login screen will appear; enter the password you just created and click Login to access the router’s configuration page, where you can proceed with the setup process.

Note: If NCF has already configured your modem, use your Fibre password.

'''4.''' At the top, click on the Quick Setup tab, and set the next parameters.
