How to install the range extender

1. Plug your range extender into an outlet near your computer and within
range of your wireless router.
2. Insert the setup CD into a computer that is connected to your home
network.
3. Click Set up your Linksys Range Extender.
If you are not prompted to begin setup:
Windows Go to Computer or Windows Explorer and double-click on the
disk drive. Click Setup (house icon).
Mac Go to Finder or Desktop and double-click the CD icon. Double-click
on the Setup (house) icon.
4. No CD drive? Go to www.linksys.com/support
for your product and device in the Downloads tab. Download to your
device and follow the instructions.
IMPORTANT
Place the range extender close to the router or access point when
beginning setup. At the end of setup you will move the extender to
a point midway between the router and the area without service. Be
sure that final location has at least 50% of your router's Wi-Fi signal. After
placing the range extender in its final location, be sure the light on the
front of the device is solid before continuing.
