(3) If the WPS connection is successfully established, the ‘

WPS

’ LED will light 

for 5 minutes; if the ‘

WPS

’ LED flashes fast, a problem has occurred, please 

wait for 2 minutes until the ‘

WPS

’ LED is off, and start from step (1) to try again.

When quick installation is successful, the ‘

Signal

” LED will turn on.

(4) Please move the extender to the place you wish to use it (the ideal place will 

be the center of your house), you can check the ‘

Signal

’ LED status to 

understand the signal reception level. Steady light: Excellent, Flashing: Good, 

Fast flash: poor.

*The following manual is for establishing a connection via the WAP-5883’s WEB 

Interface:

NOTE: By default the Comtrend WAP-5883 has a default IP address of 

192.168.0.2. To login through the Web Management interface, your computer 

(whether connected through wireless or via Ethernet directly to the device) will 

need to have an IP in the same range: 192.168.0.x. (where x equals any number 

between 3 and 254). If your network has a different IP range, set your computer 

to a static IP to configure this device for the first time and set it to match your 

network settings.

Use an Ethernet cable to 

connect your computer’s 

Ethernet port and the 

Wireless-N Range Extender’s 

Ethernet port.

OR

Use your computer’s wireless 

configuration utility to search 

for an access point named 

comtrend

’ to connect to.

Open your web browser and 

input ‘

http://192.168.0.2

’ in the 

address bar. Ensure your 

computer has an IP in the same 

range as the WAP-5883 

(192.168.0.10 as an example)
