How do I setup my Technicolor TG582n router? Before you can start configuring your router, you need to make sure it's all plugged in properly.
Plug the microfilter that came with your router into your telephone socket, and connect your router to the microfilter with the grey ADSL cable. Make sure that your router's plugged into the power and switched on. If you're not connecting wirelessly, you'll need to use the yellow Ethernet cable to connect your router to your computer.
Hard reset your Technicolor router It's normally a good idea to factory reset your router before setting it up. This is especially the case if you've already tried to set the router up and failed. 1. Make sure your router is switched on 2. Push something thin like a pin, into the reset hole on the back of the router. You need to hold this for at least 15 seconds, then release.
Setting up your Technicolor router 1. Open the Internet browser on your device. This may have a name like Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome or Safari. 2. Type 192.168.1.254 into your address bar and press enter or go. By default you should be logged into the Technicolor configuration automatically. If you've setup a new username and password in the past then you will need to enter these to log in. If you can't remember them, you will have to factory reset your router.
