How to upgrade firmware of Edimax RE11 units?
Thank you for purchasing our RE11 wireless roaming kit. We suggest you upgrade the firmware of both RE11
units.
1. First of all, please check the label on top of the RE11. It will show the default wireless network name
“edimaxExt.Setup xx”and the pre-set wireless password of your RE11 units. You may want to write them down.
Please note the wireless password is case sensitive. Make sure you use upper case for the wireless password
2. Plug just one extender into a power socket and keep the other extender off. Wait for the Power LED (the 4
th
one) turn to solid state. This may take 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Use a wireless computer to go to Edimax web site at
http://www.edimax.us
to download the latest firmware
of RE11. Go to “Driver Download” under “Support” menu bar.
Look for the product model number RE11. You will find the link of the latest firmware file.
Click on the link and you will download the RE11 firmware file to your download folder.
If you prefer to download the firmware file to the desktop screen of your computer, you can right click on the
blue link then left click on “Save Link As” or “Save Target As” and choose desktop screen as the destination.
Just download the file. The file will be needed later. Don’t open the firmware file now.
