The Techly Wireless AC750 Dual-Band Range Extender can be installed in one of two ways. The first way
involves the aforementioned WPS, while the second (we call it the manual method) uses a more traditional setup
process. Both ways lead to the same result, and it is only a matter of convenience as to why you would use WPS
over the manual method, provided your router supports WPS.

NSTALLATION SING
If your wireless router is equipped with a WPS button (sometimes referred to as N-
connect), then you can connect the range extender to your network literally just by
pushing two buttons. Here is how it works.
Step 1:
Plug the wireless range extender into the wall outlet. The position of the wall outlet
must be chosen carefully. Make sure that you are close enough to your wireless router,
so that the wireless signal is still relatively strong. If you move too far away from the
wireless router and the wireless signal is already quite weak in that location, you will
not be able to achieve good results. Use a wireless device and check the signal
strength in the location where you plan to install the range extender.
Note:
If the signal strength is below 60%, you should move closer to the wireless router.
Step 2: Wait for about 60 seconds to allow the wireless range extender to complete its
startup sequence. Verify that the the power LED is illuminated.
Step 3: On your router, locate and press the WPS button.
Note: The picture illustrates the location of the WPS button on a Techly wireless router. Other routers may not
necessarily have the WPS button in the same location. If you cannot find a WPS button, you should skip this
section and continue with the manual installation.
