adapter to connect any Ethernet-enabled device,
such as a Blu-ray player, game console, DVR, or smart
TV, to your wireless network.

following the instructions in Option 1 or Option 2,
then connect an Ethernet-enabled device to the
extender using an Ethernet cable as shown in the
diagram on the right.
My router has no WPS button, how do I connect
the extender?
Your router does not support WPS, please use Option
1 to set up the extender.
Why both 2.4G and 5G LEDs are still o after
completing Option 1?
• You may have entered the incorrect Wi-Fi password
of your main network during the conguration.
Please log into the Extender's web-based interface
to check the password and try again.
• If the 2.4G and 5G LEDs are still o, please reset the
extender and go through the conguration again.
What should I do when I cannot connect the
extender via WPS?
Some dual-band routers may be trouble
connecting to the extender via WPS. If you
experience connection issues, please congure
the extender using Option 1.
What should I do if I cannot access the
Extender's web interface?
• Make sure your computer is connected to the
extended network.
• Make sure your computer is set to obtain an
IP address automatically.
