Troubleshooting

Why can’t I connect to my wireless router or my wireless connection drops?

1. Verify that your Range Extender is within range of your wireless router.Try plugging

it into a location closer to the router and verify the Status LED is solid green.

2. Note that when extending a wireless signal from a router or access point, devices

connected to the Range Extender will not get the same speed/throughput as when

connected directly to the router.

How do I change the wireless settings on my Range Extender?

1. Open a web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, or Safari) and go to

http://dlinkap.local./

2. At the login screen, enter your Admin Password (If WPS Setup was used, password

is blank by default - just leave blank) and click Log in.

3. Go to Settings > Extender.

4. Enter a new Wi-Fi Network Name (SSID) and modify the security (Wi-Fi password)

settings as needed.

5. Click Save.

Note: If you have changed the Wi-Fi Network name or Wi-Fi Password, the device you are currently

using to connect to your Range Extender will drop. You will need to go to your Wi-Fi Settings and

connect to your Range Extender using the new network name and password.

Where should I place my Range Extender for best performance?

A Range Extender only works as well as the signal it is extending.

Therefore, proper placement of your Range Extender is important

in achieving desired results.

For best performance, place your Range Extender in between

your router and your dead zone, making sure it is placed in a

location where theWi-Fi signal is still strong. Use the Smart Signal

Indicator to help nd a location with a strong signal. The more

bars lit on the signal indicator, the stronger the Wi-Fi signal is.

What if I forgot my Range Extender’s Admin password or

want to reset my Range Extender?

1. If you forgot your Admin password or want to reset your

Range Extender back to the factory default settings, press

and hold the reset button on the bottom of the extender

using a paper clip and release after a minimum of 10

seconds. The Status light will turn red.

Note: This process will erase all your settings.

WPS may be disabled on some Routers or Modems. If the

WPS Status LED on your Router or Modem does not start

blinking when you have pressed theWPS button, try again

and hold it a little longer. If it still does not blink, STOP, and

congure your Range Extender using Method Two:

What is Mesh Smart Roaming?

With Mesh Smart Roaming, your Wi-Fi device (e.g. SmartPhone, Tablet) will

automatically roam to the strongest Wi-Fi signal, eliminating the need to switch

between your Router’s and Range Extender’s Wi-Fi signal as you move around your

home.

Mesh Smart Roaming Requirements:

1. The Wi-Fi device (e.g. SmartPhone, Tablet) must support the 802.11k/v standard.

2. The Wireless Name (SSID) & Wireless Password must be the same on both

the Mesh Wi-Fi Range Extender and your Wireless Router.

Why don’t I see a dierent network name (SSID) for each wireless band?

By default, SmartConnect is enabled on this Range Extender. SmartConnect will

automatically steer your device to the optimal wireless band (2.4GHz or 5GHz)

according to current network trac. When enabled, you will only see one wireless

network name (SSID) from your Range Extender.
