Where can I get the user manual?

This looks like a common ISP supplied router. So where is the manual? Please supply link so I can see if it's documented.

Odd link.

It's asking for a decryption key.

Why would a product manual need that protection? Very strange.

SORRY ! that's wrong link address cause it's without key
It's the MEGA cloud which's famous with its very secure and encrypted repo
This is the correct one with key

Some dozen files. Which one is the user manual?

Also, why would user manuals and docs for consumer products need security or encryption?

I worry you'll have to get back to Huwaei.

in the Windows settings. There is a card for ethernet on you PC and a card for wireless.
