3. Wait for the extender access point to go through the initial connection and
configuration process and for the Power/Cloud LED to stop blinking amber, green,
and blue and to light solid blue.
Note: The initial connection and configuration process might take up to 10 minutes.
The extender access point might restart during the configuration process.
The Power/Cloud LED lights as follows during the initial connection and configuration
process:
•
Blinking green: The extender access point is attempting to detect a root access
point.
•
Solid green: The extender access point is making its first connection with the
root access point that provides the strongest WiFi signal.
•
Blinking amber slowly: The extender access point is contacting the network
router or DHCP server to receive an IP address.
If the Power/Cloud LED does not stop blinking amber, see Power/Cloud LED is
blinking amber slowly, continuously on page 222.
•
Blinking amber, green, and blue: The extender access point is being configured
as a managed device in the Insight Instant Mesh WiFi network.
If the Power/Cloud LED does not stop blinking amber, green, and blue, see
Power/Cloud LED does not stop blinking amber, green, and blue on page 224.
When the configuration is complete, the Power/Cloud LED lights as follows:
•
Solid blue: The configuration is complete and the extender access point is ready
for operation. The extender access point functions in the Insight Instant Mesh
WiFi network and is connected to the Insight cloud.
4. Disconnect the extender access point and move it to the location where you intend
to use it.
5. At the new location, repeat Step 2 and Step 3.
6. Wait for the extender access point to resync with the root access point.
When the extender access point’s Power/Cloud LED lights solid blue, the extender
access point and root access point synced successfully.
If the extender access point and root access point did not sync, move the extender
access point closer to the root access point and try again. The extender access point
must be within the root access point’s WiFi coverage area to establish a good or fair
WiFi connection.
