My router has no WPS button, how do I connect
the Range extender?
Your router does not support WPS, please use Option

default settings?

press and hold the Reset button until all the LEDs turn
on momentarily, then release the button.

solid state after completing Option 2?
• You may have entered the incorrect Wi-Fi
password of your main network during the
conguration. Please log into the Extender's
web-based interface to check the password
and try again.
• If the RE LED still does not change to a
solid state, please reset the extender and go
through the conguration again.
