BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 My replacement R2 just arrived!! 😁 and I want to be 100% sure I’m doing this properly so I have one question is it the blue port or the yellow port I plug the Ethernet cord which I get with the Router into ?
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Exactly the one I was gonna do anyway! Thanks for the confirmation 💪

BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Ok I I had it setup and when I was gonna connect my windows laptop to it, it says secured but no internet connection, any reason why this would be ?

Just to clarify, have you been through the setup wizard? You will need to complete that before you can get a connection.
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Nope I haven’t, not sure how I do that tbh
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 I suspect I may have some of the wiring of the setup wrong, not sure tho
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 20, 2022 Administrators Posted January 20, 2022 You just need to access the interface (type 192.168.77.1 in the web browser) and then you'll be presented with it, complete the wizard and you should have internet if you wired it up correctly
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 That didn’t come up, I definitely done the wiring wrong for sure, but I’m not sure what exactly I did wrong
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 20, 2022 Administrators Posted January 20, 2022 Can you provide a picture of how everything is connected together?
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 The 4 wires in the R2 Router are an Ethernet cord for my console, another Ethernet cord which is plugged into my old router, a power cord and a cord for internet
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 20, 2022 Administrators Posted January 20, 2022 The cable going into the TP from the R2 needs to be in one of the yellow ports on the TP. Also the TP doesn't appear to be connected to anything to get internet?
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Ok I moved the cable into a yellow port what do I do to get the TP to get connected to internet? I thought everything went into the R2
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 20, 2022 Administrators Posted January 20, 2022 The R2 has to be connected to your Internet Service Provider modem/router in order to get internet
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 I get that, but what should the wiring look like to get the connection to come through
Krush Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 "internet rj45 - your white modem/router blue rj45 port WAN" or WIFI - your white router yellow rj45 port to blue rj45 port of R2 WAN - your PC game console or other on the yellow rj45 port of R2 LAN. combo... direct internet on the blue port of the R2.... Where does the internet come from to you? WIFI direct on you white modem ?????
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 20, 2022 Administrators Posted January 20, 2022 Good advice above!
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 I tried that and it worked temporarily, it allowed me to access the interface but the internet is disconnected out of nowhere
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 This is what I’m seeing as you see I set a polygon for the Dublin server in Halo Infinite
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Should I try an Ethernet connection ? instead of Wireless
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Although I haven’t tried it in game, the polygon seems to have been set up properly even without an internet connection
BillyMeagher Posted January 20, 2022 Author Posted January 20, 2022 Even when I turn the laptop off and back on, I can still access the internet and the geo filter is exactly as I left it ..
