To get started with your brand new Fonera you will need to plug it to your internet access, eventually to update it to the latest firmware and finally to register it (i.e. association of the Fonera with your FON account).
If I don't register the La Fonera: You will not get the Linus or Bill status, so you don't have roaming privileges on other FON Spots. In addition the first Fonero logging in your FON Spot, will get the router assigned to his account (and get the roaming instead of you).

Make sure you are only connected to the Fonera (no cable connected to your router while connected through WiFi for example)
- 1.3.2 Open your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.) and type http://fonera or http://192.168.10.1 in the address bar. Enter "admin" if a password is required.
- 1.3.3 You can now follow the wizard to configure your Fonera. Though all settings will later be accessible from the interface.
- 1.3.4 Go to the 'Application' menu, default password is 'admin' if you did not change it.
- 1.3.5 Click on the "Firmware Upgrade" application.
- 1.3.6 Go back to the Dashboard and click on the "upgrade" icon The upgrade process lasts 5 minutes, during this time do not disconnect the Fonera from its power supply, it might damage its firmware.
- 1.3.7 When the process is completed the Fonera 2.0n reboots. WAN and Wireless LEDs turn ON.
- 1.3.8 Connect again to the Fonera 2.0n and visit http://fonera or http://192.168.10.1 to check and configure the new services installed.
Register your Fonera 2.0n
- 2.1 At the end of the configuration wizard, or on the top part of the dashboard, click on the registration button:
- 2.2 When clicking on the register button you have to enter your FON credentials (email and password). If you are forwarded to your My FON user zone, logout from fon.com, get back to the Fonera dashboard and click on the register button again.
- 2.3 After entering your credential, fill out all required fields on the registration form by entering your Country, Region, etc. You can use the map to drag and drop the FON Spot exactly where it is.
- 2.4 Verify on maps.fon.com if your Fonera is shown. If not please redo step 2.3 by dragging it a bit on the map and save again. Also verify if your Fonera spot is Orange (Router on) instead of Grey (Router Off) to verify if it successfully sends its heartbeat to FON. (This is not the case if you choose NOT to share your Wifi with FON and thus also revoke your free roaming rights)
