Wireless-G Range Expander

Reset Button	There are two ways to reset the Range Expander's factory defaults. Either press the Reset
	Button, for approximately ten seconds, or restore the defaults from the Password tab in
	the Range Expander's Web-Based Utility.

The Power Plate

The back of the Range Expander has a two-pronged recess where its power plates can be connected. Two power plates come with the Range Expander, one with two prongs for connecting directly to a power outlet, and another with a cord to reach a power outlet.

These power plates are slid into the recess and are fully connected when the orange tab snaps into place. To remove the power plate, slide the tab to the right and slide out the power plate. Always unplug the Range Expander before removing the power plate.
