Connect to the host network
There are three ways to connect to the host network: via the WPS button, via a web
browser, or via the Tether app. Using the WPS button is an easier way to extend your
host network. We recommend you to use this way if your router has a WPS button. The
button might look like one of these:
2 1 1 Method 1: Via the WPS Button
1. Press the WPS button on your host router, and then press the
extender within 2 minutes.
Note:
For more information about using WPS button on your host router, please refer to the router's user
guide.
2. Wait until the RE LED changes from blinking to solid on, which indicates that the WPS
connection is successful.
3. Enjoy! Connect to the extended network and enjoy internet. The extended network
shares the same network name and password as your router.
Note:
• If the WPS method fails, or if you want to customize the extended network name, refer to
Via a Web Browser
• Since the performance of the extended network will be affected by the distance between the
extender and host router, we recommend that you relocate your extender by referring to
Your Extender.
2 1 2 Method 2: Via a Web Browser
