Creating a New or Extending
an Existing Network
Keenetic routers deliver reliable, continuous, and secure Wi-Fi throughout
your home. Starting with one main Keenetic router, as your demands increase,
you can add more Keenetic devices to act as Wi-Fi extenders to create
a centrally-managed multi-node Mesh Wi-Fi System.
If you are creating a new network and this Keenetic Speedster (hereinafter
'Keenetic device') is going to be your Main Router, use the switch position A H.
If you are extending an existing network and this Keenetic device is to act
as a Wi-Fi extender, turn the switch to position I B.
A. Connecting Your Keenetic Speedster
to the Internet
1. Set the physical Operating Mode Switch located on the
back panel to position A H — Router Mode.
2. Position your Keenetic device within cable lengths of Ethernet and power
outlets. Place your Keenetic device in an unenclosed space for better wireless
coverage. Connect your Keenetic device to a power source. Check that both
the Status LED C and Wi-Fi LED D are illuminated and not blinking.
3. Сonnect a mobile device to your Keenetic device via Wi-Fi. The default
Wi-Fi name (SSID) and the Wi-Fi password are printed on your Keenetic
device's back label along with a QR code that will automatically
connect your mobile device to the Keenetic device's Wi-Fi when
scanned. Alternatively, сonnect a computer to the gray Ethernet port
on your Keenetic device using the included Ethernet cable.
4. Once connected, an Initial Setup Wizard window will appear on your
mobile device / computer. If the Wizard does not appear, using a browser
go to my.keenetic.net and follow the setup instructions.
Note: If the Initial Setup Wizard still doesn't appear, please refer to the
Frequently Asked Questions section below.
B. Extending Your Existing
Network Coverage
1. On the Keenetic device you wish to be a Mesh Wi-Fi Extender,
set the Operating Mode Switch located on the back
panel to position I B — Extender Mode.
2. Connect the 'Extender' Keenetic device to a power source. Check that both
the Status LED C and Wi-Fi LED D are illuminated and not blinking.
3. Make sure your Keenetic Main Router is active and has an Internet
connection. Connect the 'Extender' Keenetic device to your Keenetic
Main Router using an Ethernet cable (as supplied). Alternatively you can
connect Keenetic devices wirelessly by placing them near to each other
and simultaneously pressing the Wi-Fi Control Buttons D on both
devices. Check that the Internet LED A on the 'Extender' is illuminated.
4. Сonnect a mobile device / computer to your Keenetic Main Router network.
5. Launch a web browser and go to my.keenetic.net and log in to the
Main Router or launch the Keenetic mobile application. Then choose
the Wi-Fi System section and click Acquire to add an extender
candidate to your Wi-Fi System. Wait for the process to complete.
6. Disconnect the acquired Extender from the Main Router and
place the Extender where you want to expand your Wi-Fi network
in your home. A Keenetic Mesh Wi-Fi System supports both wireless
and wired connections between the Main Router and Extenders.
To maximize your network performance, use wired connections
where possible. The Internet LED A on the Extender will illuminate
when it has connected successfully to your network.
