[Wireless Router] How to set up IPTV on ASUS router?

NOTE: To watch IPTV, the WAN port must be connected to the Internet. Please go to Dual WAN to confirm that WAN port is assigned to primary WAN.

 

Where is IPTV in Router GUI?

  • Please go to [LAN] >> [IPTV]

       

 

 

How to set up IPTV?

Step1. Connect your computer to the router via wired or WiFi connection and enter http://www.asusrouter.com to the WEB GUI.

       Please refer to How to enter the router setting page to learn more. 

Step2. Key in your router's username and password to log in.

   Note: If you forget the user name and/or password, please restore the router to the factory default status and setup. 

               Please refer to [Wireless Router] How to reset the router to factory default setting?  for how to restore the router to default status.

Step3. Check [Select ISP profile]

          (1) If the device does not need to set up an ISP profile, select [None] (default)

                Note: The related information needs to be confirmed with your Internet Service Provider (ISP)

             

          (2) Select [Manual Setting], the default values are shown in the following image.

                  Note: The related information needs to be confirmed with your Internet Service Provider (ISP)

            

          (3) For example: (Varies from every country/ region)

               Select ISP profile[Hinet MOD], the default values are shown in the following image. Click Apply to save.

               Note: The related information needs to be confirmed with your Internet Service Provider (ISP)

          

Step4. Check [Choose IPTV STB Port]

           Connect your cable between IPTV STB and the router, and choose which LAN port you plug the cable into.

           

Note: The router does not supports the enable multicast routing(IGMP Proxy).

          

Step5. Check [Use DHCP routes]

           Choose what DHCP routes you use. [Disable/Microsoft/RFC3442/RFC3442 &Microsoft ]

           

Step6. Check whether you want to enable multicast routing (IGMP Proxy) or not. Enabling this function allows the wireless router to handle the multicast packets.

            Enabling multicast router also enables the RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) and RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) functions.

            Default IGMP version: [IGMP v3] ,other select [IGMP v1],[IGMP v2]

            Enable Fast Leave: Disable (Default )

           

 Note: Please check Enable IGMP Snooping is enabled.

           Go to Wireless > Professional > Select Band (2.4GHz/5GHz) > Enable IGMP Snooping > Click Apply to save.

          

Step7. Configure UDP Proxy (Udpxy). Use this function to run the IPTV application (such as VLC) on several computers at the same time. This function can convert multicast UDP streams to unicast HTTP streams.

           Enter the port (such as 4000) that you want to assign for the IPTV application, then use this format to enter the address in the play list to watch IPTV streams: https://[Router IP]:[Udpxy port]/[protocol]/[channel IP address]:[channel port]    (such as http://192.168.1.1:4000/udp/239.255.1.1:5000 or http://192.168.1.1:4000/rtp/239.255.1.1:5000).

           Enter zero(0) to disable this function.

         

Step8. After configuring all the settings, click Apply to save.

         

 

FAQ

   1. Is it possible to use IPTV more on the router? I want to use IPTV on multiple LAN ports.

  • The router doesn't support to use multiple IPTV with 1 router's LAN ports in the same time.
  • The IPTV function that the router provides could only set up 1 IPTV at once.

 

   2. Can I use IPTV services through a WiFi network?

  • Generally, most IPTV STB (Set-up-box) need to connect cable to establish the IPTV connection, so the setting through cable is must in this case.
  • The IPTV setting requirement depends on the IPTV service provider.  We suggest user to check with IPTV service provider to check if equipment could support to use through WiFi and if is there specific setting required.
