Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2020 Hey, welcome to the forum! We're based in the UK, what do you mean the WiFi box exactly? Does the WiFi box have a model name/number on it? - If so what is that and I can best advise. Who is your Internet Service Provider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2020 Okay so I assume you have the Sky hub, have a look at the manual from the R2 and connect it to the Sky hub so R2 internet port to Sky hub LAN port with the ethernet cable provided with the R2. Then connect a PC to the R2 and access the interface in your web browser and complete the setup wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer- Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Sorry for this it may sound stupid but where is the LAN port on the wifi box , thankyou for trying to help also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2020 There should be at least 4 ports on the back where an ethernet cable would fit, they may be yellow. Hard to say exactly without knowing the model. Never a stupid question, you're very welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 31, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 31, 2020 Connect a wired PC to the R2 now and then access the interface, from there you'll go through the setup wizard and can change the WiFi password there. Then you can connect all your devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
