Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is a highly developed modulation scheme used in the communication industry in which data transmits over radio frequencies. WiFi 6 (802.11ax) features 1024-QAM, which provides high-throughput in both 2.4 and 5 GHz band. It provides up to a 25% increase in data rate to achieve speeds up to 10Gbps enabling your Internet service to support 4K/8K video and AR/VR game requirements.
OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access), a technology in Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), improves wireless network performance by establishing independently modulating subcarriers within frequencies. This approach allows simultaneous transmissions to and from multiple clients. OFDMA divides a WiFi channel into smaller frequency allocations, called resource units (RUs). Router or AP can communicate with multiple clients by assigning them to specific RUs.

First please check carefully the default password on the label, some words and numbers such as l vs 1 and 0 vs o looks very similar. The format of wifi password is [word:a-z][word:a-z][3 digit number:0-9]. So only last 3 digits are 0-9. For example, agencyanchor153 is correct, but agencyanch0rl53 is wrong. The password format of WebGUI login is [word:a-z][2 digit special char][3 digit number:0-9], for example, bakery#$123 is correct, but bakery#Sl12 is wrong
When your password is correct, but it still cannot connect or login. Please attempt to do a hardware reset.
For hardware reset, please use a pin or sharp-pointed pen to press and hold on the reset button till the LED start to blink blue, you need to hold the reset roughly 10 seconds. Please note if you just punch the reset button once, Dynalink Router will reboot, but not reset to default.
Please check the LED behavior carefully during hardware reset. The LED should first start to blink blue for a few seconds, indicating it is doing reset to default. Then the LED will become solid red, indicating it is doing power cycle. Then the LED will blink blue for about 45 seconds, and then become solid blue when system is ready. If you do not observe the exact same LED behavior, maybe you did not press and hold the reset button long enough, and you should try it again.

Released in firmware version 1.10.01.201, we introduced a new Automatic MTU (Maximum Transmit Unit) feature. However, we found some cable modem might be giving a very small MTU value and that will cause Internet access problem. If you found similar symptom, please follow below Troubleshooting instruction for “cannot connect to Internet” and change the MTU setting accordingly.
For T-Mobile users, we have found Dynalink Router report more false alarms with T-Mobile Home Internet. The current algorithm might be too sensitive.
Released in firmware version 1.10.01.222, we introduced a new LED feature. We will be detecting the Internet connection regularly and we will blink the LED with magenta color when we detect Internet disconnection. If you found the LED is blinking magenta occasionally and back to blue, this might be a false alarm. If it keeps blinking magenta, then you should check your Internet connection.
