In response to the increasing need for strong network coverage that can reach every crevice of your living or working space, this state-of-the-art extender offers a solution that closes gaps and eliminates dead zones.

Setup for Wavlink through manual method

Above all, it's critical to keep in mind to always follow the manufacturer's instructions, which are detailed in the user manual or on their official website. You can guarantee that you have access to the most precise and recent advice by doing this. It is also impossible to overestimate the importance of firmware updates, which are essential for improving general functioning and security measures. Because of this, it's imperative that you continue to update your Wavlink Extender Setup.

Detailed instructions for manually configuring the Wavlink extender by hand:

  • Place the extension within your router's service area for the best signal possible.
  • When the power LED stabilizes, connect the extension to an electrical outlet.
  • Utilizing your device's WiFi settings, establish a connection to the "Wavlink_Ext" network (phone or PC).
  • Once a web browser is open, type "http://192.168.10.1" or "http://ap.setup" into the address bar.
  • Give the default password and username, which are usually "admin," if asked.
  • You can follow the setup procedure on the screen. It can entail looking for open networks.
  • After selecting your home WiFi network from the list, enter the WiFi password.
  • Go with the settings or configure the extender's SSID and password. You'll establish a connection to this network on your devices.
  • Verify and confirm your changes one more time.
  • Save the configuration and wait for the extender to reset.
  • After the extender reboots, navigate to the WiFi settings on your device and join the newly created extended network.
  • Verify whether your device is linked to the extended network and online.

Now that the Wavlink Extender Setup is complete, the Wi-Fi coverage in your house has been effectively expanded. It's critical to remember how important it is to keep the extension positioned so that it can receive a strong signal from your main router. For best performance, this positioning is strategically important.

how to set up the Wavlink Extender using the WPS method

  • Once your Wavlink extender is within range of your current WiFi network, plug it into a power outlet.
  • If there is a power button on the extension, use that to turn it on. Await the stabilization of the LED lights.
  • Find the WPS button on the extension. Usually, it has the designation "WPS" or is represented by two circularly arranged arrows.
  • Click the WPS icon located on your WiFi network. This starts the router's WPS process.
  • Your Wavlink extender's LED indications may flicker or change color in response to a fast WPS button press, signaling a successful connection. 
  • The link can be established quickly thanks to this practical procedure.
  • Allow a little period of time for the extension to connect to the router. A successful connectivity should be indicated by the LED lights stabilizing.
  • Position the extension halfway between your router and the WiFi dead zones for best results.
  • Scan for available networks on your WiFi-enabled device (phone, laptop, etc.), then establish a connection to the newly created extended network. This network, which is frequently recognized by a name like "YourRouterName_EXT," is evidence of the extension's effectiveness. Enter the extended network's WiFi password (which usually corresponds to the WiFi password on your router) if requested. For user comfort, this alignment makes the operation simpler.
  • Go to the locations where you previously had spotty WiFi coverage to see whether the signal is stronger there.

The Complete Manual for Factory Resetting the Wavlink Configuration

Use these instructions to reset the factory settings of your Wavlink extender:

Look for the reset button on the extension. Usually, the device's body has a tiny hole where the "Reset" button is located.

  • Verify that the extension is powered on and connected to a power source.
  •  Locate a paper clip or pin that the reset hole can accommodate.
  • Place the paper clip or pin into the reset hole. Hold down and press the reset button for ten to fifteen seconds. 
  • After you've pressed the reset button for the designated period of time, release it.
  • The extender will now go through a reset process. Wait for it to completely reboot and restart. 
  • The extender's WiFi network name (SSID) and password need to be returned to their original settings at this point.
  •  Resetting the extension to your desired settings or using the default credentials will be required. To connect to and set up the extender's WiFi network, follow the manufacturer's instructions.

It's crucial to remember that any customized settings you had previously set on the extender will be lost if you perform a factory reset. Thus, before you do this reset, make sure you have the necessary data and configurations needed for the next reconfiguration procedure that corresponds to your needs.
