Urant WiFi Extender Installation Guide
You can easily install and configure your Urant WiFi Extender without professional assistance. The setup involves connecting the extender to your existing router and configuring it through its web interface.
How to Install the Urant WiFi Extender
- Power off your modem and main router before starting.
- Place the extender close to your router for a strong connection.
- Use an Ethernet cable to link the extender to the router.
- Plug the extender into a power outlet.
- Turn the modem and router back on.
- Once you've completed these steps, proceed to configure the extender through your computer.
Configuring the Extender Using a Computer
- Connect your computer to the extender's network, typically named “WiFi-Repeater.”
- Open a web browser and enter 192.168.10.1 in the address bar.
- When prompted, input the default username and password (these are usually found on a label on the extender).
- Click the login button to access the settings dashboard.
- Choose "Repeater Mode," select the WiFi network you want to boost, and enter its password.
- Click "Apply" and set a password for the extended network.
- After completing the setup, relocate the extender to an area where your WiFi signal is weak or doesn't reach well.
Setting Up the Extender Using the WPS Button
If you don’t have an Ethernet cable available, you can connect the extender wirelessly using the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) method. Both your router and extender must have WPS buttons.
WPS Setup Steps:
- Turn on both the router and the Urant WiFi Extender.
- Press the WPS button on your router.
- Within two minutes, press the WPS button on the extender.
- Wait a few seconds for the devices to establish a wireless connection.
- Once paired, the extender will use your router’s existing password, allowing you to connect your devices to the extended network seamlessly.
