Mesh network
You can pair two routers by pressing their
Mesh Buttons
at the same time. The pairing
starts right after their
Mesh LED lights
start blinking. After 2 minutes, their mesh lights
will be solid indicating the mesh network is ready. You can pair another router with the
main router by following above steps.
The mesh network works among routers when their
Mesh LED lights
are solid. Home
materials and layout can affect how Wi-Fi signal travels. You might need extra
routers to get full Wi-Fi coverage if you have a long narrow layouts and thick walls.
If you have more than one GL-B1300 router, you can set up a mesh network. In a mesh network, the routers will
share same Wi-Fi names (SSID) for 2G and 5G Wi-Fi networks.

MESH NETWORK SETTINGS
By default, the router with Ethernet cable plugged into its WAN port is the main router. You need to reset the router to change
your main router or release a router used to be in a mesh network.
