If you just bought a GL.iNet GL S10 and have no idea where to start, this GL S10 setup guide will take you through the basic steps to get your device operational.

Begin by plugging your GL S10 into a power outlet by using the supplied USB cable. When the S10 lights up, connect somewhere the S10 with your PC or mobile device. To get to the admin panel, pull up any web browser and type 192.168.8.1.

Use the default login credentials (they should be listed on the device) to access the system. In this instance, you want to upgrade your firmware to its latest version for performance and security improvements.

Select your mode of internet connection next: repeater, tethering, wired, whichever suits your setup. For extra security, make sure the built-in firewall is active; configure a complex admin password and DNS settings for privacy.

If you intend to go on using VPN, upload your VPN config files under the VPN tab for encrypted browsing. 

And that wraps up this quick GL S10 setup guide to configuring your device for fast, secure, and reliable connectivity in just a matter of minutes. Bookmark this article for future reference or troubleshooting.
