Network Box product info (GFRG200, GFRG210, GFRG250)
This Google Fiber Network Box Product Information Guide contains important safety, recycling, warranty, and license information. Learn about how your
Network Box (GFRG200) or Network+ Box (GFRG210, GFRG250) works.


        In this document, Network Box is a general reference to any of the network devices. Where there are differences, the text distinguishes between
        them as Network Box and Network+ Box.



Safety first
Please read these instructions before using your Network Box. We do not want you to get hurt or your Network Box to get damaged.

• Do not use your Network Box near water. If you need to clean it, do not use a wet towel. Keep your Network Box dry.
• Do not place your Network Box near any heat sources, such as hot appliances like heaters and radiators, other electronics like computers and stereos,
  or inside your fireplace. Your Network Box is cool, and you should help it to stay that way.
• The Network Box is for indoor use only. Please do not try to use it outside.
• Only plug in cables and accessories specified and as directed by Google Fiber.
• Protect your Network Box's power cord by allowing it to loosely rest between the device and the power outlet. Do not stretch it or compress it between
  objects.
• Do not try to open, modify, or repair your Network Box. This could cause electric shock or injury to you. Any customer modification not expressly
  approved by Google voids your authority to operate the equipment and will void your device warranty. If you think something is wrong with your
  Network Box, please contact Google Fiber customer support.
• If your Network Box gets wet, its power cord appears damaged, or it is generally not behaving properly, please contact Google Fiber customer support.
• The Network Box does not have an on/off switch. If you want to turn it off, unplug it.


Safekeeping
• Handle your Network Box with care; do not drop or shake it.
• It is normal for your Network Box to get warm, and it needs ventilation to continue functioning properly. Do not block the vents. Your Network Box may


• It is normal for your Network Box to get warm, and it needs ventilation to continue functioning properly. Do not block the vents. Your Network Box may
  bring cool air in from the bottom and push warm air out the back. To ensure proper airflow, place the Network Box on a solid, unobstructed surface. Do
  not place the Network Box on a soft surface, such as a carpeted floor, which may block the airflow.



      WARNINGS:

      Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric shock, or other injury or damage to the Network Box or your property.

      Do not attempt to open or modify the Network Box. If you do so, you run the risk of electric shock or injury. There are no user-serviceable parts
      inside the Network Box.

      To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose Network Box to the outdoors, liquid, moisture, excessive heat, or fire.



Choking hazards
The Network Box packaging may include plastic bags and tie-wraps. Please dispose of these properly and keep them out of reach of children, as they
could present a choking hazard. Keep the Network Box, its cords, and its accessories out of the reach of small children.

About your Network Box (GFRG200, GFRG210, GFRG250)
If you subscribe to the Fiber 100 or Fiber 1000 plan, your package includes a Network Box (GFRG110 or GFRG200). If you
subscribe to the Fiber 1000 + TV service, your package includes either a Network Box (GFRG110) and a Storage Box
(GFMS100) or a Network+ Box (GFRG210, GFRG250).

The Network+ Box provides the same network routing capabilities as a Google Fiber Network Box (GFRG200). In addition
to network routing functions, the Network+ Box serves as the central storage device for all content you record from all of
your TV Boxes. It provides 2 TB of storage space, which allows you to store up to 500 hours of HD programming, and
connects to the TV Boxes using MoCA or Ethernet.


        In this article, Network Box is a general reference to any of the network devices. Where there are differences, the
        text distinguishes between them as Network Box and Network+ Box.


This article describes the Network Box models GFRG200, GFRG210, and GFRG250. If you have model GFRG110,
see specific information about your device.

The Google Fiber Network Box (GFRG200) and Network+ Box (GFRG210, GFRG250) connect directly to your Fiber Jack
via an Ethernet cable. Device dimensions are:

• Network Box (GFRG200) and Network+ Box (GFRG210): 8" W x 8" D x 1.5" H.
• Network+ Box (GFRG250): 8" W x 8" D x 2" H.




When the Network Box is properly connected, the LED on the front displays solid blue. If the LED does not display solid
blue 2-5 minutes after being connected to power, contact Google Fiber customer support.




The Network Box serves as a router, which provides Internet service for your home network. You can connect computers
and other devices directly to the Network Box using Ethernet cables or wirelessly over Wi-Fi.


 A maximum of four devices can be wired directly to the Network Box using Ethernet cables. If you want to add more
 wired devices, you can connect a gigabit Ethernet switch to one of the Ethernet ports. Connecting directly to the Network
 Box provides the fastest speeds on your network.




           As the number of wireless devices connected to the Network Box increases, you might notice performance
           degradation.


 You can manage your network settings on the Network tab of your Fiber account.
