A. The networking device that the Range Extender is connected to probably has some form of
Web User Interface where you can view a client list. Refer to your networking device's docu-
mentation to determine how to view this information.
B. When you find the client list, locate the Range Extender. You can do this by verifying the LAN
MAC address that is on the bottom label of the Range Extender and what appears in the cli-
ent list. Write down the IP address of the Range Extender for future reference.
C. Open a Web browser, type in the IP address of the Range Extender, and then press Enter.
This will open the Web User Interface of the Range Extender. If you cannot connect to the
Range Extender, make sure all the connections are secure and correct.
Step Three: Configure the Wireless MAXg Range Extender
Follow the on-screen instructions in the Setup Wizard to configure the basic connection settings
of the Wireless MAXg Range Extender. For more detailed Setup Wizard instructions, refer to the
Installation section of the User Guide on the Installation CD-ROM.
Note: When you select a wireless router or access point to which you want to connect,
make sure you choose one that supports WDS.
Note: After you have completed the installation and configuration procedures, U.S. Robot-
ics recommends that you create a backup file of your settings in case you ever experience
some difficulties and want to restore your settings. Click the Device tab and then click
Back Up in the Back Up Settings section. Refer to the User Guide on the Installation CD-
ROM for more information about this feature.
Step Four: Reposition the Wireless MAXg Range Extender
You can now move the Wireless MAXg Range Extender to a different location to use its wireless
capabilities. Disconnect the Ethernet cable and the power adapter of the Wireless MAXg Range
Extender. Position the Range Extender within the coverage area of your wireless router or access
point and plug in the power adapter. The Range Extender should now establish a wireless connec-
tion to your wireless router or access point. If a connection is established, the Wireless LED will
be lighted.
