Steps to Set Up Zyxel DX3301 Router

Step 1

Plug it in

Please select whether you have a Phone Line or an ONT Box, then follow the steps shown below.

  1. 1

    Connect the phone cable

    Plug one end of the grey phone cable into the DSL port on the back of the router, and the other into your master phone socket. If your socket doesn't have a built-in broadband port, use the small filter (splitter) from the box.

    Connect to the fibre box

    Plug one end of the network cable into the router's blue WAN port, and the other into the LAN port on your fibre box (ONT).

    Power on

    Connect the power cable, plug it into the wall, and press the POWER button.

  4. 3

    Wait for the green lights

    The first start takes a few minutes while the router collects its settings. Look for these symbols on the front of the router and check they are lit green:

    Power
    Flashes green while starting up, then stays solid green

    DSL
    Flashes while connecting, then stays solid green

    WAN
    Solid green once the fibre box cable is connected

    Internet
    Green once your line is live. It may flicker while you're using the internet

    If the Internet light turns red, the router can't get online yet. Check the cables, wait a few minutes, then contact us if it stays red.

Step 2

Connect your devices

  1. 2.1

    Find your Wi-Fi details

    Turn your router over, and you'll find your Wi-Fi name and password printed on the label (or pull-out card) on the router.

  2. 2.2

    Join the network

    On your phone, card terminal or till, open Wi-Fi settings, pick the network name from the label and enter the password exactly as printed.

    Quick connect with WPS: if your device supports WPS, press the WPS button on the router, then choose WPS on your device within 2 minutes. No password needed.

    Prefer connecting with a cable?

    Connect an Ethernet cable to any of the yellow LAN sockets on the router. This works well for devices that stay in one place, like a till or back-office computer.
