How to set up the Telkom fibre D-Link router (DSL-G25652DG)

This article is for new Telkom fibre clients who need to configure their D-Link DSL-G2562DG router.


Before setting up your router, Telkom will create a default username and password for your router so that you can log into your router. You can find your router login details at the back or the bottom of your router. This is what you will find:

Username: admin

Password: admin

 

Please note: It is a security risk to leave the default password as admin.

It is highly recommended to set your own unique password. This will be prompted during the quick setup guide.
