Resetting

Resetting the Wi-Fi Exender+ can help you troubleshoot any issues that you may have. There are two
types of reset you can perform on your Wi-Fi Extender+, Soft Reset and Hard Reset.
The Reset button is located on the left side of the Wi-Fi Extender+.
• Soft Reset
Press and hold the Reset button for about 5 seconds, or until the Status LED starts to lash amber
and green alternately to only reset the network settings without losing your current coniguration
and initiate the app onboarding (SoftAP) process.
Hard Reset (Also known as Factory Reset)
•
Press and hold the Reset button for about 10 seconds, or until the Status LED starts to lash amber
rapidly to reset the Wi-Fi Extender+ to its factory defaults. Note that factory resetting the Wi-Fi
Extender+ will erase all of your custom settings (such as network settings, schedules, and admin
account credentials) and return them to an out-of-box coniguration.
Factory reset can also be done through the Wi-Fi Extender+'s web interface.
