✓ Collect Setup Components 

For carrying out a seamless travel router setup process, you must pre-collect the essentials. You need your GL iNet travel router, its power wire alongside the adapter, an internet source, an Ethernet wire(optional) including a smart device and access to a well working power outlet. On your smart device you must have an up-to-date web browser like chrome, firefox, safari, edge or internet explorer. 

✓ Place The Travel Router Strategically 

Now the next step towards successful travel router setup is strategic placement of the router. So place the router in an open, well ventilated space. Do not keep the travel router nearby to gadgets like microwave, refrigerator, aluminum doors, vigilance cameras, ceiling fans, fish tanks, cordless phones or close to baby monitors. Because all these electrical and metal items can affect the setup process and signal transmission. 

✓ Power On And Connect

Once the placement is finalized, power on the router with the standard power adapter. Now hold on for a couple of seconds so that the router gets ready for the further travel router setup process. When it’s ready, it shows a stable light. 

Moving further, take your smart device. Go to its settings corner. Enable wifi. Now choose the local network of your travel router and then fill in the default password which is “goodlife”. As an alternative you can also use the ethernet wire for establishing a pairing between the travel router and the smart device. 

✓ Log In

This is a very crucial step for the travel router setup, so follow it with precision. On your host device open the internet browser. Make your way towards the URL bar. Into it type http://192.168.8.1 and push the enter key. Up next choose the language and tap Next. This opens the admin password page. So create a unique password of more than five characters and hit on Submit to access the main setup panel. 

✓ Wrap Up The Setup

Finally, head to the Internet section. Select one of the four connecting methods. Thereafter the interface will ask you for a little information, type it and follow the on-screen instructions. This will lead you to a successful connection.
