Rogers ModemRouter (Rogers’ technician needs to set up)
*Router’s admin credentials should be provided by Rogers technician

To configure your Rogers modem.
Connect your computer to the Rogers modem using an Ethernet cable or via Wi-Fi.

1.Open a web browser on your computer.
In the address bar, type the default gateway IP address. This is typically one of the following: 192.168.0.1 If none of these work, refer to the router’s manual or have a look at the back of Rogers modem – sticker part; for the WiFi credential.
IF none of above, then, Google should be the best option.

Step 2: Log in to the Router’s Web Interface

You’ll be prompted to enter the router’s username and password. The default credentials are usually printed on a sticker on the router or provided in the user manual. Common default values are:

Username: admin (should be provided by Rogers)
Password: password or admin (should be provided by Rogers or check the stickers on modem)

Step 3: Locate the Static IP Settings

Once logged into the admin panel, navigate the router’s web interface to find the Static IP configuration settings. The exact location of these settings varies depending on the router model and firmware version. Look for options like “LAN,” “Network,” or “DHCP Server.”

If Rogers Technician does not support the default LAN set up, then, please refer to the following.

Here’s an example of how to configure a static IP address:

IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: n/a
DNS Servers: n/a

Step 5: Save Settings

After entering the static IP information, save your settings. The router may need to reboot for the changes to take effect.

Step 6: Verify Connection

Once the router has rebooted, make sure your devices are still connected to the network and functioning correctly. Check that the device you assigned the static IP to is using the new address.

Remember that if you encounter any issues during the process or if the router’s web interface doesn’t have the expected settings, it’s best to contact Rogers support for assistance. They can guide you through the specific steps for your modem model.

Please check the connectivities of each SSID.
