Welcome to the Dashboard The Dashboard will provide you with the current status of the Range Extender. Click SCAN to find an available network to extend. The diagram on this page displays the terms used to describe: 1. 2. The network you are trying to extend (Home Network). The network that is rebroadcasted and extended (Extended Network). Study this diagram carefully as the terms used in the following instructions will refer to these names.
Scan for a Wireless Network The Scan result will list all available 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz wireless networks detected by the Range Extender – including each network name (SSID), the operating channel, the type of security and the signal strength. If you are extending a dual band router, you will need to select the SSID of your 2.4GHz network and the SSID of your 5.0GHz network. The signal strength indicates the wireless connection between that network and the Range Extender.
Connecting to a Secure Network If the wireless network(s) you are trying to repeat has wireless security enabled, you will be prompted to enter a security key. If you are repeating a dual band router, you will need to enter the security key for both the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz network. If either network does not have security, leave the field blank. After you have entered the security key(s), click Next to continue.
Extended Network Settings (SSID & Security) The default SSID of the Range Extender is “Amped_AthenaEX_2.4” and “Amped_AthenaEX_5.0”. If you choose to "Clone" the settings from your Home Network, the wizard will copy the SSID and security key of your Home Network. The SSID of the Extended Network will have a "_RE" at the end of its name. For example: Home_Network_RE. You can also manually enter a new network ID and security key. The new security key must be at least 8 characters long.
Connection Check DO NOT LEAVE OR REFRESH THIS PAGE. Allow the countdown to complete and the Wizard will automatically redirect you to the next step.
Connect to the new Extended Network During the countdown process, the Range Extender will reboot and disconnect the Wi-Fi connection. At this point, you will need to reconnect your PC or tablet to the new Extended Network. Follow the instructions on the screen to connect to the Extended Network. Once you have connected, click the OK button to complete the setup process. If there are problems with your configuration, the Wizard will inform you to rescan for a network to extend.
