Contents of box

WARNING!

Keep plastic foil and bags away from babies and

small children as danger of suffocation.

Note!

Danger of damage!

If the packaging is carelessly opened with a

sharp knife or other pointed objects, the WLAN

repeater can be easily damaged. --Please open

packaging carefully.

1. Check that delivery is complete (see Fig. A).

2. Remove WLAN repeater from packaging and check

whether the equipment or parts are damaged. If yes,

do not use the device. Contact the service address of

the manufacturer listed on the Warranty card.

SET-UP

The WLAN repeater operates in dual band mode. This

means that both 2.4G- and 5G-WLAN signals can be sent

at the same time. For each of these WLAN standards an

individual WLAN network with a SSID (network recogni-

tion) is transmitted by the repeater, depending on the

operating mode.

The WLAN repeater can repeat amplified networks of the

WLAN router as 2.4G or also as 5G-WLAN network. The

WLAN standard used by the WLAN router is immaterial.

Operation in repeater mode

The WLAN router transmits a 2.4G or a 5G WLAN network.

The WLAN repeater amplifies this network signal and pro-

vides it as a 2.4G-WLAN network and a 5G-WLAN network.

Use the repeater mode to use the WLAN repeater to

extend the range of your wireless radio network. This

halves the data transmission rate of the radio network,

as the repeater communicates with the Client and the

Wireless Access Point

1. Set the mode selection switch to repeater.

2. Connect the repeater to an easily accessible mains

socket.

3. Switch on repeater using the ON/OFF switch. The

Power/WPS LED is now lit permanently .

Start

IRL

UK IRL

NOTE!

When using the repeater for the first time,

place repeater closely to the Access Point to

be connected to the repeater. After successful

installation place repeater in area in which the

signal is to be amplified.

Configuration in repeater mode

Prior to configuring the WLAN repeater via the Web Inter-

face, DHCP for WLAN and LAN is activated.

The SSID is “Wi-Fi repeater” and no encoding has been

set.

After the WLAN repeater has been set up using the “As-

sistant Menu” and has been connected using the home

router, the WLAN repeater is restarted.

After restarting, the DHCP on the WLAN repeater is

switched off. The WLAN repeater only receives the IP ad-

dresses from the router and passes these on to devices

logged on to the WLAN repeater.

Operation as Client

An end device (here a notebook), not containing a wire-

less adapter, is connected to the WLAN repeater through

the LAN cable.

The WLAN repeater connects wirelessly to a 2.4G or 5G

WLAN Access Point.

Use the Client mode to use the WLAN repeater as WLAN

adapter.

Devices containing only a LAN socket but no wireless

adapter (e.g. set -top boxes, printers...) can log into the

network via WLAN.

1. Set the mode selection switch to Client.

2. Connect the repeater to an easily accessible mains

socket.

3. Switch on repeater using the ON/OFF switch. The Po-

wer/WPS LED is now lit permanently .

Prior to installation, the following settings must be

observed:

• Prior to configuring the WLAN repeater via the Web

Interface, DHCP for LAN and WLAN is activated.

• After the WLAN repeater has been set up using the

“Assistant Menu” and has been connected using the

home router, the WLAN repeater is restarted.

• After restarting, the DHCP for LAN and WLAN on the

WLAN repeater is switched off. The WLAN repeater only

receives the IP addresses from the router.

Operation as Access Point

An access point in a network (e.g. a router), not cont-

aining a wireless adapter, is connected to the WLAN repe-

ater through the LAN cable. The WLAN repeater is now

available in this network as a wireless 2.4G or 5G WLAN

Access Point.

Start

IRL

UK IRL

Use the Access Point Mode if you wish to use the repeater

as Wireless Access Point. In this operating mode, the

repeater or wireless communication devices is an inter-

face to the network. You can for instance connect the

repeater to a network router that does not have a WLAN

interface allowing devices to access the network router

via the repeater.

1. Set the mode selection switch to Access Point.

2. Connect the repeater to an easily accessible mains

socket.

3. Switch on repeater using the ON/OFF switch. The Po-

wer/WPS LED is now lit permanently .

Installation as Access Point

1. Connect the LAN connection of your computer to the

LAN socket of the repeater using the LAN cable. OR

alternatively you can use the WLAN interface of your

computer. Search amongst the available wireless net-

works for the network “Wi-Fi repeater” and connect to

the network.

2. Dismiss the Windows suggestion of setting up the

network through Windows Setup and select the opti-

on “Connect to network without setup”.

3. Open your Web browser and enter IP address

“192.168.10.1“. The log-in window of the repeater

appears.

4. Enter the default user name “admin” and the default

password “admin”. Click on “Ok”. Click on “Access

point“ to start the assistant.

5. Enter an SSID (network detection) through which the

repeater is to be identified as AP in the network. Click

on “Continue”. The standard SSID for the 2.4G network

is “Wi-Fi repeater“:

6. Set up a network encoding. Possible encoding: Deac-

tivate, WEP, WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK, WPA/WPA2 PSK

7. When all connection data have been set up click

on “Accept”. Wait a few seconds whilst the repeater

restarts. After the restart has been completed, the

repeater is available as a wireless access point.

8. Connect the LAN connection of the WLAN repeater to

the LAN socket of the home router or a network socket

of your home network using the LAN cable.

9. Clients (other computers or WLAN-capable devices)

can be selected on the WLAN repeater. Either by using

the initially set network key o the repeater or the WPS

key, by pressing it briefly and waiting until the Power/

WPS LED flashes.

Installation using the WPS key (repeater mode)

The quickest, easiest and reliable way to establish a wi-

reless connection between the repeater and the WLAN

router, is the WPS button.

NOTE!

This connection method requires both devices

to contain a WPS button. As factory setting, the

WPS button is set to 2.4G radio mode. To log-in

as a dual band router, whose WPS function is

activated in the 5G radio mode, the WPS button

of the Web Interface must first be set to the 5G

radio mode.

1. Hold down the WPS button on the repeater for at least

5 seconds.

2. After 5 seconds the Power/WPS LED flashes three

times.

3. The WPS function is now active and waits for the WPS

connection.

4. Next press the WPS button of your router to be

connected to the repeater. This step must be carried

out within two minutes. The connection is set up and

the network information is exchanged.

5. When the connection has been established, the Pow-

er/WPS LED is lit permanently.

6. If the Power/WPS LED flashes, a connection fault has

occurred. Wait two minutes until the LED is switched

off and restart the connection.

7. The 5G and 2.4G signal LEDs show whether or not the

connection is fully set up.

8. Use the Web interface in order to call up the extended

settings after successful WPS connection or to ma-

nually establish the connection in case of a failed WPS

connection.

• After having restarted the repeater you can log into

the access point with your computer through the

repeater. The network detection is the same as the

SSID of the access point.

• The network key and the encoding are handled by

the router.

Manual installation through WEB interface

1. Connect the LAN connection of your computer to the

LAN socket of the repeater using the LAN cable. When

logging in as “Wi-Fi repeater” you can alternatively

use the WLAN interface of your computer. Search
