    Planning Ahead. Getting new internet service in my community. Hope to switch my Apex Classic?

    I am getting a internet service provider in my community (along with a new router).

    Like to have a plan to switch over my Apex Classic to the new network.

    Do I just go back to the original classic internet setup? Or is there a simpler way to switch over to the new service?

    thanks

    Just turn DHCP on, connect to the new network, and restart the apex. In 99% of cases that's all that you need to do. For the 1% that doesn't just work, it's usually a DNS issue with your router that can often be fixed by changing DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

    The best way to restart Apex?
    Power on and off

    or power off = disconnect everything - power on and reconnect everything?

    Best way is to navigate to the net settings on the display or local dashboard and use the restart command, but power cycling also works 99.9% of the time.
