  • For new Linksys Extender.
    Just press the WPS on your router/modem first for 1-2 seconds, then press the WPS on Linksys Extender for 3-5 seconds.
    Now wait for 2 minutes.
    The difference in light color and pattern will confirm its connection.

    For Used/ old Extender: If its an used Linksys Extender then first reset it using a paper clip to press the reset button in a tiny hole for 30 seconds.
    Now its brand new, or by default one.
    Wait for 2 minutes after reset then proceed further as setup New Linksys Extender.

    Its now extending your home network with same password as of your home wifi.

    Note:
    1. During setup, make sure that the extender is placed within 7-10 feet from Router, at the time of setup, or in the same room.
    2. Two minutes patience is the Critical Time that make the difference between success and failure in Setup.
    3. Best of luck
