Set Up
IMPORTANT—
Your MR6350 can be set up as a parent node or a child in a whole home mesh Wi-Fi system. A parent node must
be connected with an ethernet cable to your modem or modem-router. Child nodes can be connected wirelessly or with ethernet
cables.
If you are adding the router as a parent node for an existing Velop whole home mesh Wi-Fi system, factory reset all nodes and add
them to the system after your MR6350 is set up and working.
Download the Linksys app. You need this app to set up your router.
Go to the app store for your device and search for Linksys.
What you’ll need
Install the app, open it and follow the instructions.
Note—
The app works with iOS 11.4 and later, and Android 6.0 and later.
During setup you will create a Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account so you can use the app to view or change your router system
settings from anywhere you have an internet connection.
Among the many things you can do with Linksys Smart Wi-Fi and the Linksys app:
•
Change your Wi-Fi name and password
•
Set up guest access
•
Connect devices to Wi-Fi with WPS
•
Block internet with parental controls
•
Test your internet connection speed
Note—
We’ll send you a verification email. While connected to your home network, click the link in the email to link your router with
your account.
Other than plugging in the power and the ethernet cable, the app-based setup process does the work for you. Once connected,
use the app to personalize your Wi-Fi by giving it a name and password. You also can give your router and any child nodes
names based on where they are so you can identify them in the rare case where things need attention.
If you want to add child nodes to create a whole home mesh Wi-Fi system, set them up within range of a working node. Only
the parent node has to be wired to the modem or modem-router. Don’t worry, the app will help you place your nodes.
