# Connect And Login
## Turns On Power
After inserting a workable SIM card into the [SIM1 slot](/manual/installation/insert-sim-card.md), connect to the 5G and Wi-Fi [antennas](/manual/installation/install-antennas.md), and then power up the router with the included AC to DC [power adapter](/manual/installation/power-supplies.md). The **Power** indicator will light up, and the **System** indicator will flash until the router successfully boots up in 2–3 minutes.
## Connect to Router
After turning on the EZR26-5G router, the **System** indicator stays on solid white, and the **Wi-Fi** indicator turns on; we can connect to it via wireless Wi-Fi or a wired LAN cable.
### i. Wi-Fi Connection
Turn on the Wi-Fi function on a phone or computer, and search for the Wi-Fi hotspots below. The default Wi-Fi encryption type is **Open**, which has no password.
***Cell-WiFi-xxxx-V4** (2.4GHz)*\
***Cell-WiFi-xxxx-V5** (5.8GHz)*
***Note:** "xxxx" represents the router's identification code, which varies for each device. V4 and V5 denote their operating frequencies, 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz.*
### ii. LAN Connection
Locate the **LAN 1–3** and **2.5G LAN** ports on the back panel.
Use a CAT5 or higher grade LAN cable to connect either LAN port to your computer. When connecting to the 2.5G LAN port, it is recommended to use at least CAT6 grade LAN cable.
The suggested wiring type of the LAN cable is T568B.
### iii. DHCP & Static IP
Both Wi-Fi and LAN connections can automatically obtain an IP address from the DHCP server on the EZR26-5G router. If they fail to acquire an IP address, please check the IP settings on the terminal device and ensure that the DHCP client mode is enabled, or use the Static IP option below.
#### Gateway and IP Pool
Router Address (Gateway): `192.168.20.1`\
Subnet Mask: `255.255.255.0 (24)`\
IP Pool: `192.168.20.100–249`\
DHCP Lease: `12 Hours`
#### Static IP
Configure TCP/IP on your connected devices, ensuring that the IP address is within the IP pool of 192.168.20.100–249. The subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0, and the router address should be 192.168.20.1. Below are brief introductions for setting a static IP on different devices.
On iPhone: Goes to `Settings` > `Wi-Fi` > `Advanced` \
On Android phone: Goes to `Settings` > `WLAN` > `Advanced` \
On Mac: Goes to `System preferences` > `Network` > `Wi-Fi` > `Advanced` > `TCP/IP`
***On Windows:*** Goes to `Start` > `Control panel` > `Network and internet` > `Change adapter setting` (on the left window panel) > `Local area connection` > `Properties` (right click) > `TCP/IPv4` (Internet Protocol version 4) > `Properties` > `General`.
Choose `Obtain an IP address automatically` and `Obtain DNS server address automatically` Click `OK` to exit settings.
Click `OK` again in the `Local area connection properties` to apply the new configurations.
## Login Router
After connecting a phone or computer to the router via Wi-Fi or LAN, open a web browser and enter the URL ([**http://192.168.20.1/**](http://192.168.20.1/)) in the address bar.
The default setting does not have a password. Click the **Login** button to access the admin panel. The username "root" should always remain the same, with no change.
