Tenda Router Settings

Set your Tenda router to DHCP and tag VLAN 10 – the steps and menu names for Tenda firmware.

Before you start

Connect the router's WAN / internet port to the port on your fibre box (ONT) that we activated – it is in your activation email, and it is usually the one with the light on. Then open the router's settings page.

1. Set the internet connection to DHCP

  1. Go to Internet Settings.
  2. Set Connection Type to Dynamic IP Address and DNS to Automatic.
  3. Save.

2. Tag the internet VLAN (VLAN 10)

  1. On the same page set ISP Type to Manual (or open the VLAN section).
  2. Set Internet VLAN ID to 10; if there is a priority field, set it to 0.
  3. Save; the router reconnects.

3. Check it works

Give the router a minute, then look at its status page: the WAN or internet section should show an IP address from us. Open a website to confirm. If the WAN stays blank, the VLAN or the DHCP setting has not taken – check both, then restart the router.

Older Tenda firmware has no VLAN field at all. Update to the latest firmware from tendacn.com before you decide the router will not work.

Tenda models

A settings page for each Tenda model we have seen on New Zealand fibre. If yours is not here the steps above still apply – the menus are the same across the brand.
