- Turn on your Linksys Extender
- connect your computer or smartphone with the extender's network
- Open your web browser and type this address:- 192.168.1.1
- It will take you to the setup page, so click on the start setup option
- Now it will scan for the available wifi networks, select your main router's network and hit next
- then enter the wifi password and hit next again
- On the next page, it will scan for the 5g, select your router's 5g band and hit next and then enter the wifi password again(if you don't have 5g band on your main router then you can select "I don't need a second network" and hit next.)
- Now create your wifi information for the Linksys extender and hit next again
- After that, create a login password for the Extender
- Now register your Linksys product or you can skip that.
- Extender is configured
