Q1. What should I do if I cannot access the extender’s web
management page?
Make sure your computer or smartphone has connected to the extender’s
network, and not that of your router. If your router and extender share the same
network name, connect your computer to the extender via an Ethernet cable, or
use the Tether app.
If you are using a computer, make sure it is set to obtain an IP address and DNS
server address automatically.

away from large electrical appliances.
If you have enabled wireless MAC filtering, wireless access control, or access
control list (ACL) on your router, disable them first, then follow any method on the

Try setting up via the WPS button.
Reset the extender and go through the configuration again.
