What can I do in the settings menu of my WL-330 (which settings are there
and what can I change)?
Introduction
The settings menu of your WL-330 allows you to customise the settings of this range extender. If you
have a stable internet connection, we advise you not to change anything here. If you nevertheless
decide to do so, prepare thoroughly:
Please read this entire FAQ carefully so you know which settings you can change.
Make a note of the current settings! Take screenshots, for example. That way you can always
go back to the current situation if something should go wrong. You can also back up the
current settings in a separate file, so you can restore them later if something goes wrong. For
more information about this feature, see the section entitled Tools tab.
If in doubt, always read the entire manual for the WL-330, which is on the accompanying CD-
ROM.
Applying Changes in the GUI
The WL-330 will reboot itself after changes are made in the settings menu. After a reboot you must
often reconnect to the WL-330. For more information, see the section entitled Applying changes.
Login
You always log in through a browser.
Home screen of the Settings menu
Once you are logged in, you always start out on the screen shown below (Home). This is the first tab
of the settings menu. You cannot make any changes here. This page provides an overview of the
current settings. Here you can see which network the range extender is connected to and which
channel it is transmitting on.
