Ethernet Setup Guide

Setting up your extender via Ethernet (also known as Access Point mode) provides the most stable connection and highest speeds.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Plug your extender into a power outlet.
  2. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the LAN port on your main router.
  3. Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on your WiFi extender.
  4. Wait for the Ethernet LED on the extender to light up or start flashing.
  5. Access the extender's web management page via your browser (check the label on the extender for the local URL or IP address).
  6. Navigate to the Mode or Setup section and select Access Point or Wired Setup.
  7. Configure your new WiFi network name (SSID) and password.
  8. Save settings and wait for the device to reboot.

Why use Ethernet?

A wired connection eliminates signal loss between your router and the extender, ensuring that you get the full speed of your internet connection in areas that were previously dead zones.
