2 Before You Begin Where should I place my Range Extender? Connect the Extender to the Internet This chapter covers the following topics: ● Before You Begin ● Safety Information ● Quick Setup The operating distance range of your wireless connection can vary significantly depending on the physical position of the wireless devices. Factors that can weaken signals by getting in the way of your network’s radio waves are motor-driven appliances or obstructions, and walls.
● No Interference – To minimize signal interference, choose a location away from Bluetooth® devices and other household electronics such as cordless phones, microwave ovens, and baby monitors, etc. Quick Setup There are two easy setup options to extend your Wi-Fi network. Setup Using the Mobile App The Kasa app requires a mobile device running iOS 8 or later; or Android 4.1 or later. The extender can also be configured via a web browser.
iOS Android 3 Total Clients If the 2.4GHz and 5GHz LEDs do not change from blinking to solid, please refer to Setup Using a Computer. 3 Extend your Wi-Fi Network Launch Kasa and follow the app instructions to extend your Wi-Fi network. 4 Connect to Extended Network Unless you customized the extended network names during the configuration, the extender adds _EXT to the end of the main network’s SSIDs and uses the same Wi-Fi password.
Setup Using a Computer 1 Mac OS X Windows Plug In Plug in the Range Extender to an electrical wall outlet near your router. Toggle the Power switch to On and wait until the Power LED is lit and solid green. 3 Log In Launch a web browser and type: http://tplinkrepeater.net (or http://192.168.0.254) into the URL field. Enter admin (all lowercase) for both username and password to log in. 2 Connect via Wireless Disconnect the Ethernet (wired) connection from your computer (if any).
If this is your first time logging into the extender’s web-based interface, you are prompted to create a new username and password. Please do so, or you can change the admin account at a later time. Refer to Changing admin account. Per FCC regulations, all wireless products marketed in the U.S. are fixed to the U.S. region. b) Select your router's 2.4GHz network and enter your Wi-Fi password, then click 4 . Extend your Wi-Fi Network Follow the Quick Setup wizard to extend your 2.
If your network name (SSID) is hidden, click OTHER… to enter your 2.4GHz network settings. d) On the Wireless Settings screen, you can either copy and use the same SSIDs as your main (host) networks, or create new names for the extended networks, then click . c) Select your router's 5GHz network and enter your Wi-Fi password, then click . To prevent your SSIDs from being seen by others, select the Hide SSID broadcast checkbox.
b) Wait for the extender to reconnect and both Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) LEDs are lit a solid green. If not, relocate the extender closer to the router. Unless you customized the extended network names during the configuration (step 4d), the extender adds _EXT to the end of the main network’s SSIDs and uses the same Wi-Fi password. For example: If the SSIDs of your main Wi-Fi network are MyHome (for 2.4GHz) and MyHome_5G (for 5GHz). The extended network’s SSIDs will be MyHome_EXT and MyHome_5G_EXT. 2.
3 3 Manage via Web Interface Manage the Range Extender This chapter covers the following section: ● Manage via Web Interface ● Other Functions The Range Extender’s web-based interface allows you to do more advanced configuration for your extended network.
