Why can't I access the internet with my ASROCK Network Router?

  There might be several reasons why you cannot access the internet. First, ensure that the router is obtaining an IP address from your internet service provider (ISP). If your ISP requires a login, verify that the login name and password are set correctly. Also, if your ISP checks your computer's MAC address and only allows one Ethernet MAC address, either inform your ISP about your new router and request them to use the router’s MAC address, or configure your router to clone your computer’s MAC address.

  If you are unable to log in to your ASROCK Network Router, verify that the Ethernet connection between your computer and the router is working correctly, and that the wireless SSID connection between your computer and wireless devices are also functioning. Try clearing the router’s configuration to factory default. Ensure that you are using the correct login information, as the default username is "admin" and the default password is "admin".

  To improve wireless connectivity on your ASROCK Network Router, ensure that the router’s SSID broadcast is enabled, as disabling it will hide your wireless network. Check the dashboard Wi-Fi on/off button from the Web GUI. Also, place your computer near the router, but at least 6 feet away, to see if the signal strength improves.
