Router Authentication

There are two ways to contorl the WTFast software.

  1. The Web App is the main User Interface for everyday usage and game acceleration

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

 First step is to authenticate your router

  1. Open the WTFast control page on the router - http://mywifi.mercku.tech/wtfast/

  2. In order for your account to know the router and vice versa - you need to authenticate your router with your account.
    Clicking the Authenticate Router button will send you directly to our Web App and apply the authentication operation.

  3. If you’re not logged in to the app you’ll need to login with your WTFast account before the authentication operation will complete.

  4. After you authenticate your router this screen will offer you to reset your router

  5. Clicking reset router here will delete your account details from the router - please reboot the router after this operation to fully delete this information.

 See your router in the Web App

  1. boost.wtfast.com - our Web App is the primary app to control your router, open sessions and see your network statistics.

  2. After login, and before you authenticated any router it will be empty

  3. Once you authenticated your router with your account in the Web App (above step) it will appear in the router information box (make sure this router is selected in the dropdown).
    If you don’t see anything - just refresh the page (Ctrl+r)


Device management

 Device detection & device type automatic identification

Recommended -
When you setup your router with WTFast, don’t connect any device to it until you want to start adding your consoles.
Once you do, connect each console separately and make sure it has the right Device Type.

Alternatively - if you already irrelevant devices in your list please see Offline status section below

  1. Once the router is authenticated WTFast starts looking for connected devices in your network.

  2. Please allow 2-3 for this operation to complete every time you connect a new device - as we are still in Beta this might take a bit of time.

  3. A device is discovered and then move to initialize status. This might be very quick or take a few seconds.

  4. The end state for a device is online status. If your device reached this status it means WTFast is ready to listen to traffic that comes from this device

  5. Device Type - The correct device type is necessary for the proper operation of our software.

    1. WTFast makes an effort to identify the correct device type. But this automatic identification is not guarantied to be correct - its the user responsibility to make sure the Device Type is correct!

    2. Hovering over the Device Status will display the device IP and MAC address. This can be used to validate the entry in this card in case it is not clear.

 Archived Devices

  1. Archived devices - If a device is not identified by WTFast it will not display in your main dashboard as ready to be used. It will be stored in the Settings area.

  2. Assigning a device type will send this device to Dashboard and once its online it will be ready to be used.

  3. If you want to archive a device that appear in your dashboard but is not a gaming console - simply assign an “other” or empty device type to it OR use the archive button (depending on your UI) and it will go back to the list of Archived Devices in your Settings

 Offline devices

  1. Currently device that go Offline (disconnect from your network) are not recognized in real time as Offline.

  2. If you’d like to eliminate devices please reset the WTFast software on the router (from the control page - mywifi.mercku.tech/wtfast
