Technical Support via GoodCloud

Sometimes it is necessary to get technical support from GL.iNet staff and they may ask you to share the your device using GoodCloud. This guide will show you how to share your device with GL.iNet staff.

In the router’s admin panel, go to APPLICATIONS > GoodCloud and enable GoodCloud, Remote SSH and Remote Web Access, then agree the terms and click on the Apply button. As per the following picture.
