Aircove | Wi-Fi 6 VPN Dual_Band Router for Home | Protect Unlimited Devices | Free 30-Day Trial | (U.S. & Canada Version)

Ok, These routers can be either straight forward to setup and use or they will not connect. Firstly these routers should come in a black box, the box will have an Aircove ExpressVPN RED sleeve cover around the box, and finally the whole package should be sealed and wrapped in the clingfilm clear wrap, unopened straight from the factory. If your router does not come in this state and looks opened and used. Then i would 100% send it back because if you have setup problems, then you don't know whether the router is faulty or your home setup is the issue. Can be a real headache. Next you have to look at your ISP router that the internet company gave you. Go into it's setup and turn off the wireless router and router functionality. You just want it to behave as a modem. Next you want to connect your ExpressVPN router via its internet port to a free port on the router that you now have setup as a modem. Some ISP routers have a special port you can only use to connect to another router. Others don't care. You can connect to any port. Most will allow you to connect to any port. Next go into the Aircove router SETUP menu via its wireless username and password. You can connect via a LAN cable but it does not make a difference. When you open up the browser you should type in expressvpnrouter.com or 192.168.132.1. This will lead you into the wizard that will guide you through the setup. Now this is where you can have problems. As the wizard goes through, the first thing it will do is try to connect to the internet via your ISP modem port. If it succeeds then your in business. You can carry on and complete the installation and you are protected by ExpressVPN (Make sure you login in and turn the VPN ON within the router SETUP menu.) The ExpressVPN router light will go from a flashing light to a steady ON light. If it does not connect, Then first check the Aircove router AircoveOS software version. I have found ver 4.7.5.4443 works, is stable and allows the router to connect to the internet. In fact i had a router with ver 4.0 OS SW. It did not connect to the internet. I updated it to 5.x.x (latest). It did not connect to the internet. I then updated the OS SW to 4.7.5.4443. The router connected to the internet and worked correctly. Therefore if your router has older OS SW. It is worth updating the OS SW to the latest version 5.x.x. This can be done within the router setup SW. If this does not work. Then download 4.7.5.4443 OS SW. This version should get the router connected to the internet. The file can be downloaded from ExpressVPN website link for the 4.7.5.4443 OS SW. One final point if you are using two ExpressVPN Aircove routers like i am. Then the "IP address" and "First client IP address" cannot be the same on both routers. Both router's will come with the default IP address 192.168.132.1 and First client IP address 192.168.132.10. You can go into the router setup menu and go to menu option Network Settings, then go into Local Network settings. Then change the "IP address" under Aircove IP setup title, from 192.168.132.1 to for example 192.168.142.1. Under DHCP server title, the "First client IP address" will automatically change to 192.168.142.10. Save the setting and away you go. Remember when you log back into the second ExpressVPN Aircove router. Its IP address for access to the SETUP menu will now be 192.168.142.1 NOT 192.168.132.1. Overall the routers have been excellent, with good speed and connection. Within the SETUP menu there are also options to check the router is protecting you. Hope this guide helps those of you struggling to setup the router.
