titleSetting up your Mercku router depends on the following:
  1. What kind of outlet port from the ISP network you have installed in your wall

  2. Whether you’d like to setup the Mercku router as the only or a secondary network in your house or not

The Mercku router arrives with an Ethernet cable, RJ45 connector.

In order for the WTFast software to work the Mercku router has to operate in router mode

Options:

  1. If your wall port is regular Ethernet port you can connect the Mercku to it with the RJ45 connector.

  2. Alternatively you can connect the Ethernet cable to one of the LAN exits of your ISP router and connect the other end to the Mercku WAN port - creating two networks in your home

    Optional: Then go to
  • Setting your ISP router

interface and set it to
  • in Bridge mode

. This will allow you to avoid a situation of a Double NAT (Network Address Translation)
  • - please consult your ISP about this option.
    Some ISPs support this option.

titleWTFast router software can be controlled in two ways:
  1. The Web App is the main User Interface for everyday usage and game acceleration (read about it in the following pages of the user manual)

  2. The Control Page - this page is used for general health checks and troubleshooting. Its functionalities are:

    1. Authenticating the router with the user account (more in the next guides)

    2. Restarting WTFast router software - From time to time you might find a need to restart WTFast, this may happen if you experience issues in device detection / getting a game session or any other unexplained issue.
      After restart expect this:

      • Previous WTFast logs will be deleted! - if you need to extract those logs to help us investigate your issues please do it previous to a restart

      • Once the WTFast software starts over - WTFast will automatically set itself to listen again to the same device and game that it was listening to before the reboot!! (if this was the case).
        Please consider this when going back to interact with the WTFast Web App.

      • WTFast softwae on the router is still in Beta! Please consider waiting 1-2 after restart before trying to make any operation.

    3. Updating WTFast - please check that your WTFast version is up to date in this card. It is always recommended to be on the latest published public version.

    4. Extract Logs - when you have any issue please download the logs and send us so we can investigate your issue better. Thank you
