Today I will tell you about the principles of configuring routers from the provider Akado. This provider connects subscribers in Moscow and the Moscow region. The Akado routers are configured differently, they don’t have any standard connection type, they use a connection with a static IP address, PPPoE, configuration using a DHCP server is an automatic configuration of your router, i.e. settings are sent to you through a special server.

Before starting the setup, I recommend that you clarify the type of Internet connection in the technical support of Akado. You will also need a username and password to enter the router, and a configured connection to the router. How to configure the network card you can find here:

Configuring a router through a DHCP server

After connecting the router, you need to go into its settings. First you need to find out the main ip-address for your router, it is usually indicated in the manual, or on the label of the router itself, or on the box from the router.

After you know the login details, go to the settings.

We open the browser, enter the address in the address bar, in my case it is: http://192.168.1.1

After that the web interface will open, I will show on the example of D-Link DIR-300:

Click Manual Internet Connection Setup, everything may differ for you, the bottom line is that you need to find the WAN settings.

You need to select a connection type on Dynamic IP (DHCP)

We don’t indicate the DNS server, MTU \u003d 1500. After we save the router settings, click the Save Settings button. Configuration in Dynamic IP (DHCP) mode is now complete.

PPPoE configuration

To configure in PPPoE mode, you need to fill in the following parameters.

Select the connection mode PPPoE (Username / Password).

• Adress Mode - Dynamic IP.
• User Name - user name (your login, check with Akado).

We fill in the remaining parameters as in the picture, then save the router settings by clicking the Save Settings button. Setting up PPPoE mode is now complete.

Configure in VPN mode (PPTP)

To configure the VPN (PPTP) mode, you need to fill in the following parameters.

Basic AKADO setup instructions

• Windows 7:

Akado is a popular Internet service provider that is used by users in Moscow and the Moscow Region. If you become a subscriber of this provider, then all that remains for you is to correctly configure the Internet.

As a rule, the main part of the Internet setup from Akado is carried out through the web interface of the router. Since even Akado has different models of routers distributed, not to mention the fact that you purchased a router yourself, the interface in your case can seriously differ, but the configuration principle will remain the same.

Step 1: connect the router

First of all, you need to connect the router correctly. To do this is quite simple: first you need to provide power to the router. This can be done if you use the power supply included in the kit, connect it to the router and, accordingly, to the network.

After that, you will need to provide the router with Internet access. To do this, you need to connect an Internet cable, carried out by the Akado provider to your apartment, to the router. To do this, you need to insert this cable into a special socket on the back of the router, which, as a rule, is either highlighted or signed with the word “WAN” or “Internet”.

Since the router is configured from a computer, we will need to connect these two devices to each other. This can be done using the cable included with the modem. You should connect one end of the cable to one of the LAN connectors of the router (no matter which one), and the other, respectively, connect to the computer.

At this stage, the connection of the router to the computer is completed, which means that we quietly proceed to the process of setting up the router on the computer.

Step 2: configure the router on the computer

2. As soon as you press the Enter key, an authorization window will appear on the screen, in which you will need to enter data to enter the web interface. While this data is standard, the word “admin” is entered in the first and second fields (without quotes). If this data did not fit, and you were not able to enter the settings of the router, then you will need to examine the case of the router, where, as a rule, at the bottom, there should be a sticker with information about the router. Here, the authorization data for your modem (login and password) should be indicated.
3. After logging in to the web interface, first we need to configure the Internet on a modem. In the left pane of the window, you will need to open the tab   "Network", select the section in it Connections. In the window that appears, click on the button Add.

Depending on the subscriber’s address, the connection to Akado Telecom is made using an Ethernet cable or a coaxial cable with a modem. You can clarify the technology available at your address in the technical support of the Internet provider, giving the street and house number. Setting up the router provided by the provider is performed by the wizard for free. For an additional fee, an employee of the company will help you configure third-party network equipment.

Connect Akado via cable modem

For residents of houses connected to the provider through a coaxial cable, Internet access is only possible using a cable modem. Internet provider Akado recommends devices of the following brands for use on the network using DOCSIS technology:

• Technicolor;
• HUMAX;
• Motorola
• UPVEL
• Webstar
• SAGEM.

The work of a cable modem is to convert analog signals to digital. The converted data is sent through the network port to which the computer or WiFi router is connected. Plug the coaxial cable into the house or apartment into the appropriate connector on the cable modem. Insert the cable from the WiFi router or computer into the Ethernet port. Plug in the device and wait for it to load. After that, go to the final equipment setup.

Important! Akado does not guarantee the correct operation of modems purchased from third-party suppliers. To be able to contact support to configure the equipment, use the devices provided by the provider.

Ethernet Connection Setup

If the subscriber’s house is connected to the network using Ethernet technology, a standard network cable is laid in the room. It is enough to connect it to a router, laptop or computer. Thanks to the DHCP server running on the provider's side, any device connected via cable will receive the connection parameters automatically. Insert the cords into the appropriate connectors, plug the router into a power outlet, and press the power button if available.

Note!  Connect the Akado cable to the Internet or WAN port. LAN devices must be connected to the “LAN” connectors.

How to set up WiFi on a router

Open the router’s web interface at the address indicated on the sticker at the bottom of the device. Enter the standard username and password, and then click the "Login" button. If the usual data does not fit (an authorization error appears), restore the factory settings. To do this, press the "Reset" button and hold it for 10-15 seconds. Then try logging in to the admin panel again.

Go to the “WiFi -\u003e General Settings” section. Indicate the name under which your wireless network will be displayed. Select automatic channel setting to avoid the need to set the current operating range each time. Using the “Security Settings” link, select the “WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK” option in the “Network Authentication” drop-down list. Install the PSK encryption key, which will be used to connect to the WiFi network. Click “Change” in the lower right corner of the page, and then click “Save” to restart the WiFi router and start working with the new parameters.
