Set up WiFi access on your XAVN2001 extender.
You can set up WiFi access on your XAVN2001 extender in one
of three ways:
Option 1: Use the WPS button on your wireless router or
gateway to clone your existing wireless network.
a. Press and hold the Security button on the XAVN2001
(about 10 seconds) and release it.
The Wireless LED starts to blink.
b. Press the WPS button on the wireless router or
gateway.
When the Wireless LED stops blinking, the cloning is
finalized. The WiFi range extender (XAVN2001)
re-creates a WiFi access point with the same SSID and
password as your router or gateway.
You now have two wireless networks with the same
settings (SSID and password). When you are roaming in
your house, your wireless client (laptop, tablet, or
smartphone) switches from one network (router or
gateway) to the other (XAVN2001), depending on the
signal quality.
