cables. The green light turns on when an Ethernet device is connected and active on this port. The

light blinks when the extender is sending or receiving data over the Ethernet port.

How to Install the Range Extender

There are two ways to use your Linksys extender: as a wireless range extender or as a wired

range extender (access point). Wireless range extenders repeat existing Wi-Fi signals. Wired

range extenders (access points) create new Wi-Fi hotspots when connected to a router or access

point with an Ethernet cable. Both scenarios require a router with a working Internet connection.

Before starting setup, decide whether you want to use your RE7000 as a wireless range extender

or as a wired range extender (access point). Instructions for both setups are in this user guide.

Setting up as a wireless range extender

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

Does your router have a WPS button?

WPS is a simple way to connect Wi-Fi devices with Push Button Connect. Routers that support

WPS have a button that might look like one of these symbols:

If your router has a WPS button, continue with WPS below.

If not, or if you are not sure, continue with browser-based setup on page 9.

Note—The WPS button will not work if you have disabled WPS on your router, or if you have

chosen WEP as your network security type. In either case, continue with browser-based setup on

page 9.

1. Plug the range extender into an electrical outlet close to your router. You can move the

range extender to an ideal location later in step 5. After the range extender is plugged in,

the indicator LED on the front will blink green for up to a minute.

2. Wait for the indicator LED on the front of your range extender to blink amber before

going to step 3. This can take up to a minute.

3. Extend your 2.4 GHz network.

a. Press the WPS button on your router. Within the next two minutes complete step

3b.

b. Press the WPS button on the side of your range extender. The WPS button will

light up and the indicator LED on the front of your range extender will blink

green.

Watch the indicator LED on the front of your range extender to verify whether the

connection was successful.

If it turns solid green , the connection was successful. Move to step 4.

If it blinks amber , the connection failed. You may try again by

repeating step 3 or try browser-based setup on page 9.

4. Extend your 5 GHz network.

You may skip this step if your router does not have a 5 GHz network or if you don't want to

extend that network.

a. Press the WPS button on the side of your router again. Within the next two minutes

complete step 4b.

b. Press the WPS button on your range extender again.

The WPS button will light up and the indicator LED on the front of your range

extender will start to blink green.

Watch the indicator LED on the front of your range extender to verify whether the

connection was successful.

If it turns solid green , the connection was successful.

If it starts to blink amber before it turns solid green, the connection

failed. You may try again by repeating step 4.

5. Move your range extender to an ideal spot.

Unplug your range extender and plug it back in midway between your router and the area

without Wi-Fi. Using your mobile device or laptop, be sure you have at least two bars

(around 50%) of your router’s Wi-Fi signal at that location. If you don’t have two bars,

move the range extender closer to the router.

6. Check indicator LED for connection quality.

It can take up to a minute for the ranger extender to boot up after moving it. During this

period you will see the blinking green LED once again.

oSolid green Ready to use.

oSolid amber Weak connection to the router. Find an outlet closer to

your router.

oBlinking amber Not connected to the router. Find an outlet closer to

you router.

7. Connect your Wi-Fi devices to the extended network you just created.

Select the extended network on your device's Wi-Fi manager. Extended networks are

identified by "_Ext" added to the end of your main network name(s). Passwords are the

same as those for your main networks.

Your range extender is now set up. Enjoy your extended Wi-Fi coverage.

Browser-based setup

Use this setup method if you don’t have a WPS button on your router, or if you don’t

want to use WPS to set up your RE7000.

1. Plug in the range extender

Plug in the range extender midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi. Using

your mobile device or laptop, be sure you have at least two bars (around 50%) of your

router’s Wi-Fi signal at that location. If you don’t have two bars, move the range extender

closer to the router. You can move the range extender to an ideal location later using the

setup software.

2. Wait for the indicator LED on the front of your range extender to blink amber.

This can take up to a minute

3. Connect to range extender setup network.

On a computer, phone or tablet, connect to the Wi-Fi network: Linksys Extender Setup -

XXX. (XXX are the last three digits of your range extender’s MAC address.)
