phone, ensure the mobile data is disabled.
2. The login window pops up automatically. If it doesn't, launch a web browser and enter
192.168.0.254 manually to get started. Create a login password and record it down for later use.
3. Select the Wi-Fi network (SSID) you want to extend.
*Note: If the login window does not appear, refer to FAQ > Q1.

Relocate the Wi-Fi Range Extender Wi-Fi Connection
1. Plug in the extender about halfway between your router and the Wi-Fi dead zone. The
location you choose must be within the range of your router. Find the network names with _EXT or _5GEXT added to the end of your existing network in
your Wi-Fi network list. By default, the password of the extended network is the same as your
existing Wi-Fi network.
1. Connect your computer or smart phone to the extender’s network.
2. Launch a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.254 in the address bar and log in.
*Note: If the login window does not appear, refer to FAQ > Q1.
3. Manage the extender as needed.
Extended Network Name:
Router’s network name with _EXT/_5GEXT at the end
Password:
Same as your router
Note: If you want to change the extended network name,
refer to Manage Your Extender.
2. Wait for about 2 minutes until the Signal LED turns blue. If it doesn't, relocate the
extender closer to the router to achieve better signal quality. If the light is always orange or
o no matter how you relocate it, refer to FAQ > Q3 > A3, A4.

Method 1: Wireless Devices
Manage Your Extender

Wi-Fi router
You can connect a wired device to the extender using an Ethernet cable. The device can then
access your existing network through the extender’s Wi-Fi connection.
Method 2: Ethernet-Enabled Devices
With the extender powered on, use a pin to press the Reset Button for 8 seconds. The extender
will reboot to its default factory settings. Reset pinhole is on the left of the extender
(refer to picture shown in Meet Your Extender).
Q2: How do I reset the extender?
A1. Check the Signal LED. Blue light refers to A2. Orange light refers to A3. No light refers to A4.
A2. A blue light shows the extender has been connected to the router successfully and within
the router's Wi-Fi coverage. If the network is working normally on other devices by connecting
to the router's Wi-Fi, you might have overloaded the router by connecting too many devices.
Disconnect some of the devices and ensure the Wi-Fi extender's priority connection to the router.
If your extender still fails to connect, refer to A5.
A3. An orange light indicates the need to change your extender's location until the light turns
blue. The light is always orange no matter how you re-locate it? Make sure there are no metal
objectives, closed doors or electromagnetic waves that could interfere with the signal transmission.
If your extender still fails to connect, refer to A5.
Q3: What should I do if the extender can not be connected successfully to the router?
Make sure your computer or smart phone has connected to the extender's network ended
with _EXT/_5GEXT, and not that of your router.
If you are using a computer, make sure it is set to obtain an IP address and DNS server address
automatically.
Verify that http://192.168.0.254 is correctly entered in the web browser and press Enter.
Use another web browser and try again.
Reset the extender and try again.

FAQ

Enjoy the internet!

The primary dierences between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz are bandwidth (speed) and range
(coverage). While 2.4 GHz is characterized by longer coverage but comparatively slower
data transmission speeds, the 5 GHz oers less coverage but faster data transmission speeds.
The 2.4 GHz band is more susceptible to interference as many electronic devices and appliances
like microwaves, baby monitors, garage door openers, etc. use it. So, the 5 GHz band is your best
choice to reduce congestion and obtain higher speeds if your device doesn't need to be moved
around much and can be located near your extender. On the other hand, the 2.4 GHz frequency
would be more suitable for a device that is moved around a lot throughout the day in a very
large space.
Q4: How to choose between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz?
A4. If the Signal LED is o, it shows there is no connection between the extender and the router.
Make sure you have not turned o or hidden the router's Wi-Fi signal. Also make sure you have
not initiated encryption mode, MAC lter, or Blacklist of the router. Don't know how to manage
your router? Reset your router to its factory settings or contact your network provider. If your
extender still fails to connect, refer to A5.
A5. Reset both your extender and router to clear their cache and then undertake all the connection
and checking procedures again. ‘Reset and re-start’ is one of the ultimate diagnostic actions you
can perform at any time. If you still have problem, contact us for FREE 24/7 technical support
and describe your problem including router model no., extender model no. and the solutions
you have tried and failed.
