TP-Link Router Settings

Set your TP-Link router to DHCP and tag VLAN 10 – the steps and menu names for TP-Link 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.

Sign in withadmin / admin, or the password you set the first time

1. Set the internet connection to DHCP

  1. Go to Advanced > Network > Internet.
  2. Set Internet Connection Type to Dynamic IP.
  3. Open Advanced Settings on the same page and set MTU Size to 1500; leave Internet Port Negotiation Speed on Auto.

2. Tag the internet VLAN (VLAN 10)

  1. Go to Advanced > Network > IPTV/VLAN and turn it on.
  2. Set Mode to New Zealand-UFB if your model offers it – that sets VLAN 10 for you. If it does not, choose Custom.
  3. On Custom: tick 802.1Q Tag for Internet, set Internet VLAN ID to 10 and Internet VLAN Priority to 0.
  4. Save. The router reconnects in a minute or two.

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.

Deco mesh units are set up in the Deco app: More > Advanced > IPTV/VLAN, then choose New Zealand-UFB if it is listed, or Custom with 802.1Q tag on and VLAN ID 10. Not every Deco model has the IPTV/VLAN page. The TP-Link HX510 and VX230v we sell are already configured – just plug them in.

TP-Link models

A settings page for each TP-Link 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.
