No welcome page?

If you see an error page during step 1 of Connecting to the Internet, type http://192.168.1.254 into the address bar and press enter on your keyboard.

What are the router username & password?

Resetting your router

If you have any problems setting up your Thomson Gateway, you can reset it and start again.

Use a paperclip, pen or pointed object to press into the reset pin hole on the back of the router. Keep the button pressed in for at least 7 seconds. When the power light goes red, release the button and wait until the power light turns green again.

You now need to apply your settings again. Follow this guide again from Connecting to the Internet.
