FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why can't I connect wirelessly or my wireless connection drops?
1. Verify that your Range Extender is within range of your wireless router. Try
plugging it into a location closer to the router and verify the Status LED is
solid green.
2. Note that when extending a wireless signal from a router or access point,
devices connected to the Range Extender will not get the same speed/
throughput as when connected directly to the router.

What if I forgot my Range Extender's Admin password
or want to reset my Range Extender?
1. If you forgot your Admin password or want to reset your
Range Extender back to the factory default settings, press
and hold the reset button on the bottom of the extender
using a paper clip and release after the Status light turns red.
Note: This process will erase all your settings.
2. Setup your Range Extender using your preferred method.
How do I setup my Range Extender using WPS?
IMPORTANT
WPS may be disabled on some Routers or Modems. If the WPS Status LED on your Router or
Modem does not start blinking when you have pressed the WPS button, try again and hold it
a little longer. If it still does not blink, STOP, and configure your Range Extender using the
D-Link Wi-Fi App Setup.
1. Plug your Range Extender into an available outlet
near your wireless router and wait until the
Status LED is blinking amber (this may take up
to 3 minutes). You can move it to a more suitable
location after it is set up. If the status LED does
not light up, ensure the power toggle switch
underneath is in the "on" position.
2. Press the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button on
your wireless router for 3 seconds. An LED should
start blinking on your router. If it does not blink, see the important note
above.
3. Once confirmed that the WPS light is blinking on your router, within one
minute, press the WPS button on your Range Extender for 2-3 seconds. The
Status LED should start to blink green.
4. When the Status LED turns solid green (may take up to 3 minutes), this
indicates that your Range Extender is securely connected to your wireless
router.
Your setup is complete! You can now unplug and move your Range Extender
to a location between your Wireless Router and the area where you want
wireless coverage. By default, your Range Extender will share the same
Wi-Fi name and password as your Router. When using WPS setup, the default
Admin Password is "password".
If after moving your Range Extender, the signal strength indicator is showing one
single amber bar or if your Range Extender LED does not turn solid green within 3
minutes, move your Range Extender to a wall outlet closer to your wireless router.
