Connecting Fritz!WLAN Repeater with a Base Station
This chapter describes how to connect the Fritz!WLAN Repeater with your Fritz!Box or with another
wireless LAN base station via a wireless radio network.
You can also register two or more Fritz!WLAN Repeater with your Fritz!Box.
Establishing a Connection Using WPS
Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can establish quickly and easily a secure WLAN connection. You
can use WPS if the following prerequisites are met:
Prerequisites
•
The WLAN base station must support WPS (the latest Fritz!box models support WPS).
•
WPS must be enabled in the WLAN base station.
WPS is enabled upon delivery in the latest Fritz!Box models. In older Fritz!Box models, enable
the WPS method in the user interface under “WLAN / Security / WPS Quick Connection”.
•
The WLAN base station must support the WPA or WPA2 encryption standard.
•
The SSID (radio network name) of the WLAN base station must be set to “visible” (announced).
The SSID of a Fritz!Box is visible upon delivery.
•
If a MAC address filter is active in your WLAN base station, the MAC address of the Fritz!WLAN
Repeater must be entered there as an exception. You can also disable the MAC address filter
until the connection to the Fritz!WLAN Repeater is established.
