You can connect the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater with a FRITZ!Box or other
wireless access point (web router) over a wireless radio network.
You can establish the wireless connection using WPS or the configura-
tion wizard.
3.1 Establishing a Wireless LAN Connection Using WPS
Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can establish a secure
wireless LAN connection at the push of a button.
Requirements
• The wireless access point must support WPS and WPS
must be enabled.
• The “WLAN Bridge” operating mode must be set in the
FRITZ!WLAN Repeater (preconfigured upon delivery of
the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater).
• The SSID (radio network name) of the wireless access
point must be set to “visible” (announced).
• If the MAC address filter of the wireless access point is
enabled, the MAC address of the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater
must be entered as an exception.
In the presettings of the latest FRITZ!Box models WPS is en-
abled, the SSID is visible and the MAC address filter is dis-
abled.
