The extender will set in default settings and network can be joined with the help of the router’s WiFi SSID password.

If you want to connect the extender with the help of the Ethernet cable, because the router doesn’t support the WPS connection, then follow these instructions:

  1. Connect Ethernet cable to the router’s LAN port and port of the extender.
