Properly hook up your device

1. Connect your upstream Internet connection to the WAN port
2. Connect a client machine to the LAN port farthest away from the WAN port
3. Have general Internet access from the client machine flow through the Fibre device

This setup ensures that the traffic passes through the filters of Fibre, hence making it possible to recognise your attempt to connect to its internal services.

Press RESET for a few seconds

When you switch it on (and just after a power failure) your Fibre device will ignore attempts to connect to it. You must have local access to the device to allow it. Even if you allow it, the WAN port will never have access to the web service, or any other internal services.

1. Press the RESET button for a few seconds
2. The ACTIVE light will flash fast for a few times
3. Release the RESET button

You should now be able to ping the device, using the following commandline on Unix or Windows:

ping 172.17.172.17

Access the web-interface

1. Open a browser on your client machine
2. Make sure that you still have Internet access, flowing through Fibre
3. Link to the address http://172.17.172.17/
4. Login
