Unboxing and Preparation
  • Confirm the package includes the router, power adapter, Ethernet cable, and Quick Start guide.


Hardware Setup

  1. Connect to the Internet

    • Use the provided Ethernet cable to connect your ONT to the router’s WAN (blue) port.
    • Make sure your ONT is powered on.

  2. Power On the Router

    • Plug the power adapter into the router and connect it to an outlet.
    • Wait for the Power LED to turn solid white or blue (model-dependent).


Initial Configuration

  1. Connect to the Router

    • Use your laptop, smartphone, or tablet to connect to the default Wi-Fi network (SSID) listed on the label under the router.
    • Alternatively, connect via Ethernet to one of the LAN ports.

  2. Access the Web Interface

    • Open a web browser and enter http://router.asus.com or 192.168.50.1.
    • Follow the setup wizard to:
      • Detect your internet type (Dynamic, PPPoE, or Static IP).
      • Configure a new Wi-Fi network name and password.
      • Set an admin username and password for the router interface.

  3. Update Firmware

    • The setup wizard will check for firmware updates. Install any available updates for improved performance and security.


Using the Asus Router App


  1. Download the Asus Router app (iOS/Android).
  2. Follow the app’s step-by-step guide to complete setup and manage settings remotely.


Model-Specific Variations
  • RT-AX58U: Supports faster speeds (AX3000) and additional features like Adaptive QoS for gaming/streaming prioritization.

For these models, the setup process is identical but includes extra configuration options during the setup wizard or within the app.


Advanced Settings (Optional)
