Configure Telekom router via speedport.ip

- If you are configuring the Telekom router for the first time, you can use the step-by-step wizard. You can find it in the navigation on the top left.
- In order to protect the router configuration from unauthorized access, you should change the device password. This is done under "Security" in the menu and then "Device password".
- In the "Security" menu, you should also set up a password for your WLAN access under "SSID & Encryption" in the "WLAN security settings" tab below. Under "WLAN access restriction" you only release certain devices for WLAN access.
- If you select the "Device list" option in the "Network" menu, you will be shown all devices that are currently in your network. In the "Network" menu you can also switch the WLAN function off and on again.
- In the menu under "Overview" in the "Status" tab, you can find out the most important information such as WLAN password and network speeds.
- From the "Load & Save" menu, you should now and then follow the instructions under "Firmware Update" and check whether there are new updates for the firmware of your router so that it is always up to date and the most secure.
