Installing the PlusNet modem router without a computer

Hi. I've noticed that PlusNet offer an easy install modem router with their broadband package and was wondering if it could be installed without a computer?

I'm thinking about using it with a Nintendo Wii and an iPad. Are there any PlusNet users who could explain the installation process to me? Thanks :)
 
We do something called smart start that the router configures itself when you plug it in to the phone line.
 
I know Plusnet were looking in to that the last time I spoke with a friend who works there. Not sure if this was launched though.

Just replied to your other thread with both the Wii and iPad should be possible to configure a router via the web administration panel. Many Netgear and Speedtouch routers are setup this way.

We have a similar implementation which I presume is based on TR069 technologies? We don't call it Smart Start though (in fact we haven't really a name for it!).

Yes it was.

Setting up should be as simple as plugging the router in, attaching it to the phone line and waiting a few minutes whilst it pulls down your connection details from our ACS server. This won't work is if the router wasn't scanned properly at the warehouse, but that doesn't tend to happen all that frequently.

The details to connect to the router wirelessly should come printed on a sticker that's packaged with the device.

Hope that helps!
