SetUP
Step 1
Fully extend the antennas to provide optimal wireless
coverage. Ensure the power switch on the bottom of
the DAP-1860 is in the ON position, plug the DAP-1860
into a wall outlet, and wait until the Status/WPS LED is
blinking amber.
Step 2
Push the WPS button on the source wireless router or
AP, and then push the WPS button on the DAP-1860.
The Status/WPS LED will start to flash green. Please
allow up to two minutes for the process to finish.
The Status/WPS LED will turn solid green when the
DAP-1860 has connected successfully to the source
wireless router or AP.
SELECT YOUR METHOd
There are three methods available for setting up the DAP-1860 - using WI-FI Protected
Setup (WPS) (recommended), the QRS Mobile App, or a web browser.
SETTING UP THE dAP-1860 USING WI-FI PROTECTEd SETUP (WPS)
NOTE:
To connect to a wireless router or AP and extend the Wi-Fi network in your
home, please make sure the source router or AP features a WPS Button.
If the Smart Signal LED has a single amber bar after
the connection process has finished, the DAP-1860 has
established a poor quality connection. To improve the
connection quality, the DAP-1860 should be relocated
to a wall outlet closer to the source wireless router or
AP. The more lit bars on the Signal LED, the better the
wireless signal.
