Step 4:
Wait while the wireless range extender scans for available networks. This process can take up to a minute.
Step 5:
The Manhattan Wireless AC750 Dual-‐Band Range Extender shows all wireless networks within range. If you live in an
apartment building or in a neighborhood with many houses in close proximity, this list can be quite extensive. Once you
have located your wireless home network, select it.
Step 6:
On this screen, you need to type in the wireless
encryption key that is required to connect to your
wireless home network. You needn’t worry about
selecting the correct encryption type, authentication
mode or cipher suite: The range extender fills that out
for you automatically. The wireless password must be
entered in the “Security key” field. Be sure to type the
password correctly. You can activate the “Unmask”
option to see the password in clear text. In the next two
fields, you can type in the SSID (wireless network name)
of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (AC) network. You can type in
the same name as your wireless network at home; i.e., “Manhattan,” but it may be a good idea to modify the SSID so that
you can quickly see which wireless network is from your home network and which one is the repeater network. In the
example shown here, we append “24RP” and “50RP,” respectively, to differentiate between the networks.
Click “Apply” when done.
