SETTING UP THE DAP-1620 USING WI-FI PROTECTED SETUP (WPS)
NOTE: To connect to a wireless router or AP and extend the Wi-Fi network in your
home, please make sure the source router or AP features a WPS Button.
PRODUCT SETUP
SETUP
Plug the DAP-1620 into a wall outlet and wait until the
Status/WPS LED is blinking amber. Push the WPS
button on the source wireless router or AP, and then
push the WPS button on the DAP-1620. The Status/
WPS LED will start to ash green.
The DAP-1620 is now ready to share the extended
Wi-Fi network with your PCs and mobile devices.
Connect to the extension network created by the
DAP-1620 using the following network name (SSID):
• 2.4 GHz: (Your router’s SSID)-EXT
• 5 GHz: (Your router’s SSID)-EXT5G
5 GHz is recommended for the fastest wireless speeds.
Please use your router's usual password.
After WPS, the password of “(Your router’s SSID)-EXT”
will be the same as the router it is extending.
Please allow up to two minutes for the process to nish.
The Status/WPS LED will turn solid green when the
DAP-1620 has connected successfully to the source
wireless router or AP.
SELECT YOUR METHOD
There are three methods available for setting up the DAP-1620 - using WI-FI Protected
Setup (WPS) (recommended), the QRS Mobile App, or a web browser.
If the Signal Indicator LED has a single amber bar after
the connection process has nished, the DAP-1620 has
established a poor quality connection. To improve the
connection quality, the DAP-1620 should be relocated to
a wall outlet closer to the source wireless router or AP.
The more lit bars on the Signal Indicator LED, the better
the wireless signal.

SET UP DAP-1620 WITH QRS MOBILE APP
The DAP-1620 can be congured using your smartphone. Search for "D-Link QRS
Mobile" on the Apple App Store or Google Play, and download the app. Next, connect
your smartphone to the DAP-1620 using the SSID and Password information
provided on the Wi-Fi Conguration Card and follow the helpful in-app prompts, or
refer to the product manual for more information.
SET UP DAP-1620 WITH A WEB BROWSER
The DAP-1620 can also be configured using a web browser. Once you have
plugged the DAP-1620 into a wall outlet within wireless range of your router
or connected to your existing wired network, open the wireless utility on
your computer, select the name (SSID) of the DAP-1620 network, and enter
the password (both of these are found on your Wi-Fi Configuration Card).
Next, open a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome) and
enter http://dlinkap.local./ By default, the username is Admin, and the password
eld should be left blank. Please refer to the product manual for further information
on conguring the DAP-1620 using a web browser.
TROUBLESHOOTING
SETUP AND CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS

FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS?

- Using a paperclip, press and hold the reset button on the bottom of the device for 5
seconds.

the DAP-1620's Wi-Fi Conguration Card.
2. HOW DO I CONNECT A PC OR OTHER DEVICE TO THE DAP-1620 IF I HAVE FORGOTTEN
MY WI-FI NETWORK NAME (SSID) OR WI-FI PASSWORD?
- If you haven't changed the extended Wi-Fi network's settings, you can use the
network name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password on the Wi-Fi Conguration Card.
- If you did change the network name (SSID) or Wi-Fi password and you did not record
this information on the Wi-Fi Conguration Card or somewhere else, you must reset
the device as described in Question 1 above.
- It is recommended that you make a record of this information so that you can easily
connect additional wireless devices in the future. You can use the included Wi-Fi
Conguration Card to record this important information for future use.
