AGENT Q&A PAIRS
Q: Customer has no internet with the Adtran V854 after installation. A: Power cycle the router and confirm the WAN cable is securely connected to the fibre ONT.
Q: How do I access the router settings on the V854? A: Open a browser and go to 192.168.100.1. Username is admin and password is on the label on the bottom of the device.
Q: Wi-Fi is weak in some rooms. A: The V854 supports mesh satellites. Adding one can greatly improve coverage.
Q: Customer wants to use their own router instead. A: Put the V854 in bridge mode if available, then connect their router to the WAN port.
Q: Frequent disconnections on the V854. A: Power cycle the router and ONT, then check all cables and try a firmware update.
