Nighthawk AX8 8-Stream AX6000 WiFi Router
Specify Your Internet Settings 35 User Manual
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the router
network.
2. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you
logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
3. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > IPv6.
The IPv6 page displays.
4. From the Internet Connection Type menu, select PPPoE. The page adjusts.
The router automatically detects the information in the following fields:
• Router’sIPv6AddressonWAN. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the
router’s WAN (or Internet) interface. The number after the slash (/) is the length of the
prefix, which is also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6 address. If no address
is acquired, the field displays Not Available.
• Router’sIPv6AddressonLAN. This field shows the IPv6 address that is acquired for the
router’s LAN interface. The number after the slash (/) is the length of the prefix, which is
also indicated by the underline (_) under the IPv6 address. If no address is acquired, the
field displays Not Available.
5. In the Login field, enter the login information for the ISP connection.
This is usually the name that you use in your email address. For example, if your main mail
account is JerAB@ISP.com, you would type JerAB in this field. Some ISPs (like Mindspring,
Earthlink, and T-DSL) require that you use your full email address when you log in. If your ISP
requires your full email address, type it in this field.
6. In the Password field, enter the password for the ISP connection.
7. In the Service Name field, enter a service name.
If your ISP did not provide a service name, leave this field blank.
Note: The default setting of the Connection Mode menu is Always On to provide a steady
IPv6 connection. The router never terminates the connection. If the connection is
terminated, for example, when the modem is turned off, the router attempts to reestablish
the connection immediately after the PPPoE connection becomes available again.
8. Select an IP Address Assignment radio button:
• Use DHCP Server. This method passes more information to LAN devices but some IPv6
systems might not support the DHCv6 client function.
