    STEP 2: LOGIN TO "CHINANETSPEED"

    WiFi password found on your account page under "Manage Devices"

    Please note that the built-in wifi is intended for diagnostic purposes only and is NOT intended for long-term usage. The speed will be significantly slower (max 30Mbps), instead of the up to 200Mbps that our service regularly provides

  • UNDERSTANDING PPPoE and BACKUP INSTALLATION

    The reason for the complexity is due to something called a PPPoE login. This is specific login/password that is used by your internet company to identify you on their network, and activate your line with internet.

     

    However, when the original technician who installed your home’s internet, he can choose to place in one of two options:
    ISP modem
    Personal Wifi router

    There are advantages/disadvantages of both options, but in your case, it looks like they placed it on your personal wifi router.

    FOR MAXIMUM SPEED, WE RECOMMEND ADDING A SECOND WIFI ROUTER

    This is also the same setup recommended for advanced users - wifi router #1 remains for China-only websites, large file downloads, P2P torrents, etc, while wifi router #2 is accelerated by Chinanetspeed for everyday internet usage.

     

    Nothing fancy needed - modern wifi routers begin at 120RMB for state-of-the-art models. Our recommendations found here:
