1. Plug the EW-7438RPn Air into a power socket. The LED will flash red while

the system is booting up. The device is ready when the LED displays on (red).

2. Use a Wi-Fi device (e.g. computer, tablet, smartphone) to search for a Wi-Fi network with the SSID “EdimaxEXT.Setup **” and connect to it.

If you are using a computer, please disconnect any Ethernet cables. For mobile devices, iOS 5 or Android 4.x or above is required.

The last two characters of the SSID (EdimaxEXT.Setup**) will be unique numbers according to your device e.g.”EdimaxEXT.Setup c1”. These unique numbers are displayed as the last two characters of the MAC address on the included access key card.
