Wifi set up

[Hami1991]

Ho guys , I bought a black EE home broadband router today, but I can't connect to the Wi-Fi. Can anyone tell me how to set it up? Also, do I need to connect it to a telephone socket with a cable, or is it wireless?

@Hami1991 Just post a picture up of the Router, and what you think is the connect that you have, too many variables to go through, but if you have EE/BT broadband at present then it's the same idea unless you bought the WRONG router, which can happen, so pic back/front of that router....

The router connects by cable to either a phone socket or a box with flashing green lights that is powered by the mains, called the ONT. fixed to the wall depending on which EE BB plan you have. Which do you have?

Which EE BB plan are you on including its speed? What EE router do you have (read its label or post a pix)?

You connect a device by WiFi to the router by selecting its network from the list of WiFi networks seen & supplying its pwd given on the slider on the back of the router.

"Buying a black EE home broadband router" is a funny way of putting it. Have you not signed for an EE BB contract plan?
