    I have one on a Eircom D1000 router. Doesn't the Eircom F1000 have a WPS button? If so it's as simple as that. Else you need to use a cable from a PC (and/or wifi from a laptop) can't recall exactly and conect to it's own broadcast wifi to configure. The other way is is I used WPS to get it on the network then found it's IP from the router admin webpage and reserved its IP in DHCP so it always get the same one. That way you can use a broswer and http to the IP to check the status if required.
