Use WPS to Add a Computer to the Extenders WiFi
Network
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect a computer or WiFi device to the extender’s
network without entering the WiFi network passphrase or key. Instead, you use a WPS button
or enter a PIN to connect.
If you use the push button method, the WiFi device that you are trying to connect must
include a physical button or a software button. If you use the PIN method, you must know the
PIN of the WiFi device that you are trying to connect.
WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your extender network is open (no WiFi
security is set), connecting with WPS automatically sets WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the
extender network and generates a random passphrase. You can view this passphrase on the
WiFi Settings page (for more information, see
View WiFi Settings on page 17).
For information about using WPS to connect the extender to a WiFi network during setup,
see
Use the Extender in Access Point Mode on page 12.
Use WPS With the Push Button Method
For you to use the push button method to connect a WiFi device to the extender’s WiFi
network, the WiFi device that you are trying to connect must include a physical WPS button
or an onscreen WPS button that you can click.
To use WPS to add a computer or WiFi device to the extender’s WiFi network:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
extender network.
2. Log in to your extender:
If you did not enable the One WiFi Name feature, enter http://mywifiext.local in the
address field of the browser.
If you enabled the One WiFi Name feature, enter one of the following URLs:
- Windows-based computer. http://mywifiext or http://mywifiext.local
- Mac computers, iOS devices, and Linux devices. http://mywifiext.local
- Android devices. http://<extender’s IP address> (for example,
http://192.168.1.3)
For information about how to find the extender’s IP address, see Find Extender’s
IP Address on page 41.
A login page displays.
3. Enter your admin email address and password and click the LOG IN button.
The Status page displays
4. Select Settings > Do More > Connect Devices (WPS).
