Installing Google Fiber equipment is a straightforward process, but it does require careful attention to ensure that everything is set up correctly for optimal performance. Once the equipment has been delivered to your home, you will generally find a Fiber Jack, which connects to the Fiber Network, and a Google Fiber router or WiFi point.
To begin the installation, it is important to first determine where you want to place the Fiber Jack. This device should ideally be situated near a power outlet and close to the location where you plan to connect your router or WiFi point. If you have a wall-mounted Fiber Jack, it can be attached to a wall using screws.
Next, you will need to connect the Fiber Jack to the Optical Network Terminal (ONT). This involves plugging in the Fiber cable that is usually provided along with the equipment. After establishing the connection, plug the Fiber Jack into a power outlet to activate it.
Once the Fiber Jack is powered on and functional, the next step is to set up the Google Fiber router or WiFi point. Connect the Ethernet cable from the Fiber Jack to the router's WAN or internet port. Afterwards, connect the router to a power source. Allow a few minutes for the devices to boot up and establish a connection.
After the initial setup, you may wish to configure your WiFi network settings using the Google Fiber app or web portal. This would include changing the default network name and password to something more personal.
Please note that installation steps can vary depending on whether you have additional services, such as Google Fiber TV. For specific scenarios or additional configurations, referring to the official Google Fiber website may offer more detailed guidance.
