3.6.1 Setting up an MPro Mesh Router and a WAP6807 with a WiFi
Connection
Follow the steps below to set up your MPro Mesh Router with the WAP6807.
1 Turn on both devices near each other. Note the power LEDs when you’re done. The power LEDs should
be steady green.
2 Download the app to your smart phone and log into the MPro Mesh Router. You may need to forget
your current WiFi connection on your smartphone.
3 Change the default SSID and WiFi key on the MPro Mesh Router; see Section 3.4 on page 24 for more
information. After applying changes, you will need to reconnect to the MPro Mesh Router again using
the new SSID and WiFi key.
4 Use WPS to copy the SSID and WiFi key from the MPro Mesh Router to the WAP6807.
5 Turn off the WAP6807 and place it where you need to extend WiFi coverage. Use the app to see if the
extender is too far from the router; see Section 3.5 on page 25 for more information.
