Q:
How do I setup and install my COVR-X1862/X1863 router?
A: NOTE: This example shows the setup of the COVR-X1862 using Android OS. Apple/iOS setup should be the
same/similar
NOTE: Remote COVR nodes are pre-synced out of the box.
NOTE: If you will be using a switch in between for Wired/Ethernet Backhaul for the COVR points you will need to
make sure your switch support IEEE 1905.1 protocol. Also when connecting the remote COVR nodes to the switch
you will need to use the Ethernet port on the back of the nodes.
