There are two ways you can quickly setup the Wi-Fi extender - using
browser-based iQ Setup (steps 1 - 15 below) or using the WPS button (see
WPS Setup).
Note: It is recommended that you plug in the extender
close to your router/access point for the setup process.
You need to establish a connection between your
extender and router/access point. After setup is
complete and a connection is established, you can
move the extender to your preferred location.
Note: Before you use the wireless extender, please
make sure your computer is set to use a dynamic IP
address. This is a simple procedure, and step by step
instructions for how to do this can be found in the user
manual.
1.Plug the Wi-Fi extender into a power outlet close to the root wireless
access point and switch it on. The power LED ( ) will flash while the
extender initializes –please wait. The extender is ready when the power
LED is on.
2.You can connect to the Wi-Fi extender using a (i.) wired or (ii.) wireless
connection.
Note: Please disable any other Wi-Fi adapters you
may have, and/or disconnect/disable any other
Ethernet cables/adapters from your computer.
Installation
4
i. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Wi-Fi extender’s
Ethernet port. Plug the other end of the cable into your computer’s
Ethernet port.
i. Use your Wi-Fi device (e.g. computer, tablet, smartphone) to
search for a Wi-Fi network with the SSID “Edimax.Setup” and
connect.
3.Open a web browser (http://edimax.setup) and you will see the following
screen, please click “Get Started”.
Note: You can change language using the drop down
menu in the top right corner.
SSID:
Edimax.Setup
5
4.iQ Setup will display all available 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi networks, listed
under “SSID”. Please select one or both root Wi-Fi networks that your
extender will connect to and subsequently extend. If you don’t wish to use
either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band you must select “Disable” in order to
continue.
Note: If the Wi-Fi network you wish to connect to does
not appear, click “Refresh” to search again. Please
also be aware that for the 5GHz band, subject to local
RF regulations the EW-7238RPD only supports
channels 36, 40, 44 & 48 (Europe) and channels 36, 40,
44, 48, 149, 153, 157, 161 & 165 (U.S.) If you do not
see your 5GHz network listed, you may need to change
your router/access point’s 5GHz channel.
5.If the network you wish to connect to has a hidden SSID, select “Setup
extender manually” and enter the SSID manually. Then input a “Device
SSID” and security key information – please refer to the user manual for
more detailed guidance.
6
6.For each network you select, you can enter a “Device SSID” which is a name
to identify the EW-7238RPD’s Wi-Fi network. If the root SSID requires a
security key, you will also be required to enter it here.
Note: If you do not know your existing network
security key, please refer to the user manual for help.
Note: In the example above, the EW-7238RPD will
connect to the root Wi-Fi network OBM-Airport-2.4G.
The EW-7238RPD will extend this Wi-Fi network and
use the new SSID OBM-Airport-2.4G_2EX to identify
itself.
7.Click “Next” to continue and you will be prompted to add
http://edimax.setup to your bookmarks (Internet Explorer and Firefox only).
This is the URL to access the extender’s browser based configuration
interface to further configure the settings of the extender, or to run iQ
Setup again. If you do not wish to add this URL to your bookmarks, click
7
“Cancel” – or select “No” from the drop down menu shown below, before
you click “Next”.
8.Please wait while the Wi-Fi extender tests the connection.
9.When the test is complete, click “Apply” to restart the device.
Note: If the extender cannot obtain an IP address from
the router/access point then you will see the screen
below. Click the “Static IP” button to assign an IP
address to the extender and then click “APPLY” to
restart the device.
8
Note: When assigning a static IP address to the
wireless extender, you need to ensure that you assign
an IP address in the same subnet as your network. For
example, if your static IP is 192.168.9.2 then you need
to assign the wireless extender an IP address in the
range 192.168.9.x where x = 3 –254.
Note: To ensure that you assign a correct IP address to
the wireless extender, you can check the IP address of
your computer and/or router. Please refer to the user
manual for guidance on how to do so. Your ISP can
also provide you with such information as IP address,
subnet mask and gateway address.
10. Please wait while the device restarts.
9
Note: After the system has restarted, if you do not see
the congratulations screen in Step 11, then please skip
straight to step 12.
Typically, this may occur for smartphone users who
setup the extender via a wireless connection (as
shown in II-1. iQ Setup 2.ii). It is likely that after the
extender restarted, your smartphone re-connected to
the Edimax.Setup SSID which is now, upon completion
of setup, redundant.
11. After the device has restarted you will see a congratulations screen as
shown below, displaying the name and security key for each of the
extender’s Wi-Fi networks.
12. The extender is now functional and ready for use. If you wish to move
the extender to another location, remember to switch off the extender
before you unplug it. For the best coverage, select a location where the
extender’s signal strength LED ( )displays a strong signal.
