Step 1 - Initiate
WPS Mode
While the Status/WPS LED is blinking orange, push the
WPS button on the source
wireless router or AP, and then push the
WPS button on the DAP-X1870. The
Status/WPS LED will start to flash green. Please allow up to two minutes for the
process to finish.
The Status/WPS LED will turn solid green when the DAP-X1870
has connected successfully to the source wireless router or access point.
Step 2 - Connecting Devices to the DAP-X1870
The DAP-X1870 is now ready to share the extended Wi-Fi network with your PCs
and mobile devices. You may use the
WPS method to connect devices to the
extended network created by the DAP-X1870 using the following network
names (SSID). The password will be the same as the wireless network you are
extending.
•
(Your router’s SSID)-EXT
The Smart Connect feature will present a single wireless network. When
connecting clients to the extended network, they will be automatically added to
the best band, either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. To disable the Smart Connect feature and
individually congure 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz SSIDs, refer to “Extender Settings” on
page 28.
Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) makes connecting your DAP-X1870 easy. To use
WPS, first make sure the source router or
access point features a
WPS Button or has a virtual WPS Button.
