Setting up a new du router the right way
Ten minutes of setup saves a year of "the Wi-Fi is bad". Placement, one SSID per band where needed, updated admin password, and a firmware check - in that order.

Do this, in order
- Site the router high, central, and out of cabinets; fibre enters wherever the ONT is, so plan the cable run.
- Power up, let the ONT register (green PON), then confirm an internet light before connecting devices.
- Log into the admin page, change the Wi-Fi key and the login, and set a device name you recognise.
- Update firmware if prompted, then reboot and re-test speed wired versus wireless.
- Add smart-home gadgets to 2.4 GHz only, so a future 5 GHz change does not black out your lights.
