Place the extender, apply power, and connect it to your WiFi network.

Place the Extender and Apply Power

1. Place your extender in the same room as your WiFi router.
Note: Proximity to the WiFi router is required only during the
initial setup process.
2. Connect the power adapter to the extender and plug it into an
electrical outlet.
The Power LED lights solid amber while it is booting and then
solid green when it is powered on. If the Power LED does not
light, press the Power button.

extender to your existing WiFi network. You can do this in one of two
ways:
•Connect with WPS. For more information, see Connect with
