Welcome to the Hack the World-network!

This manual is based on the recommended router, model:

ASUS RT-AC52U.

The next pages show each step you need to take in order to

setup the router correctly, based on this recommended

model.

If you want to use a different router, you can. Please make

sure the router offers a ‘DNS* settings’ or ‘whitelisting’

feature.

The settings interface for different models are likely to differ

from the interface shown in this manual.

*DNS stands for Domain Name System and converts IP-address: a unique

number for each computer, network and website connected to the

internet, to domain names like hacktheworld.se. This makes it easier for

people to remember how to get to certain websites instead of have to

remember the specific IP-address of each website.

Step 1

Connect the router to a network

1. Plug the AC adapter to the back of the router (A).

2. Plug the ethernet cable into the blue plug on the

back of the router (B) (Only the blue plug will work).

3. Plug the other end of the ethernet cable into a LAN

port of your already existing network.

4. Press the power button (C).

5. The lights on the front side of the router will turn

blue when the router is correctly installed.

Get to the router settings software

1. It takes a few minutes for the router to create a WIFI

network when you’re starting it for the first time.

Wait for the WIFI network to appear.

2. The default name of the router is ASUS_A8_2G. You’ll

find the WIFI network through your computers WIFI

settings.

3. If the router has the default settings it will

automatically take you to the quick internet setup if

you open a web browser. In the case it would not,

you can type [http://192.168.1.1] into the browser’s

searchfield, and push enter in your browser.

4. This will lead you to a login page for your router's

system settings.

Step 3

Login (or Sign in) the routers software

●As default the name and password to the router will

be: admin.

You can find this information in the bottom of the devices,

or in the manual that came with your device.

Step 4

Create an admin

1. When you have logged in, you need to create a new

admin account and password for the router.

○Keeping the default login & password

(¨admin¨) is a security risk.

2. Choose a new Login Name and Password of choice,

and be sure to note it down, so you don’t forget it.

* 5 GHz is a secondary wifi connection which has a longer range (how far you can

be from the wifi and still be connected) and faster bandwidth (How fast the wifi

is updating). You can use the same NetWork Name, and add ‘_5G’ to it.

Change wifi name and password

The standard WIFI Network Name is named after the make

and model of the device. For our users to find this

connection, we need to change the name of the WIFI

network.

1. Click on the button named ‘Router Setup’. You will

open a window that looks like the one depicted on

the right.

2. Select the NetWork Name (SSID) input field and

change it to “Hack the world play”.

3. Everyone is allowed to access this network, so leave

the ‘Password’ input field blank. No password is

needed to connect to this network.

4. Do the same for the 5 GHz network.

5. Press “Apply” to confirm the new names.

Step 5

Network Configuration Summary

1. After applying the changes, you will be forwarded to

a screen that looks like the image on the right.

2. Make sure all the information is correct.
