ADVANCED CONFIGURATION

1. What is 802.11r?

802.11r is a proprietary implementation of IEEE 802.11r-2008 (fast BSS transition) on Linksys

RE9000 to support Seamless Roaming. When an 802.11r-compliant device such as iPhone® roams

from one Linksys RE9000 to another Linksys RE9000 or any Linksys Max-Stream product, the fast

transition mechanism can reduce the authentication time needed for a full WPA/WPA2 Personal

four-way handshake to under 100 ms.

2. When would I need to enable the 802.11r feature on my Linksys RE9000?

If you have any Linksys Max-Stream wireless product in your network, enable this feature to support

Fast BSS Transition for roaming from one Linksys RE9000 to another Linksys RE9000.

3. Does the Linksys RE9000 support Seamless Roaming?

Yes. Seamless Roaming allows your supported device such as an iPad® or iPhone® to roam

between a supported Linksys Max-Stream router or range extender products (make sure that the

latest firmware is installed with Seamless Roaming support).

Moving between a traditional router and range extender, your home Wi-Fi signal can experience lag

or a dropped connection. With its intuitive technology, Seamless Roaming allows you to move from

one room to another and automatically switches your device to connect to the strongest Wi-Fi signal.

4. What are the guidelines when using Seamless Roaming on my Linksys RE9000?

In order for Seamless Roaming to work properly, you must configure the range extender accordingly:

Works with another Linksys Max-Stream extender or router

NOTE: You may need a firmware update to add the Seamless Roaming support. Check your

product's Release Notes to be sure.

Wi-Fi names must be the same

Must be on the same subnet

Must have the same Wi-Fi security settings

NOTE: Only WPA2 or WPA2/WPA Mixed Mode is supported.

The client device must also support Seamless Roaming (ex., on Android™ devices, the

option is called Wi-Fi Roaming). Check your device's manufacturer to make sure that this

option is enabled. Seamless Roaming works between Wi-Fi to Wi-Fi only and not 4G to Wi-

Fi when using a mobile device.

5. Does my Linksys RE9000 support MAC Filtering?

Yes. If you set up Mac Filtering on your Linksys RE9000 you must also setup Mac Filtering on your

existing wireless router. Otherwise you are only allowing or preventing clients to connect to the

Linksys RE9000 but you still need to configure Mac Filtering on any other Wireless router, Access

Point or Extender that you have in your network to allow or prevent clients.

6. How do I configure Access Control feature of my Linksys RE9000?

To enable the Access Control feature of the Linksys RE9000, follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Access the Linksys RE9000’s web-based setup page. For instructions, click here.

Step 2:

Go to Wireless.

Step 3:

Go to Access Control and select the Enabled radio button.

Step 4:

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. My Wi-Fi is not being detected during Setup, what could be the problem?

The Linksys RE9000 uses the 5 GHz band as the dedicated backhaul connection. You must have a

Dual-Band network with the 5 GHz working in order for the Linksys RE9000 to connect to your

upstream connection.

2. Can I use the Linksys RE9000 if I only have a 2.4 GHz network?

Yes. During Setup, you can use the Access Point mode option. It will require the Linksys RE9000

to be connected to your network with an ethernet cable.

3. Why can’t I find the Linksys Extender Setup in my Wi-Fi list?

Make sure the light on the Linksys RE9000’s front panel is blinking orange. If you still can’t see the

setup network, move the Wi-Fi device being used to set up closer to the Linksys RE9000. Wait for

the blinking orange light and refresh the list.

4. I correctly entered my Wi-Fi password during the setup. Why does the Enter your

password page still show an error?

The Linksys RE9000 is likely at the outside limit of the router’s signal. The signal could be being

interrupted before it reaches your router. Move your Linksys RE9000 closer to your router.

5. Why am I experiencing poor signal or slow speed on my Linksys RE9000?

Be sure to place your Linksys RE9000 in an ideal location, as indicated by the Spot Finder

technology (In Range Extender mode).

NOTE: When you move around your home, your wireless devices may not disconnect from the

router until they lose Wi-Fi signal. This may occur even if the Wi-Fi signal from the Linksys RE9000

is stronger (and vice versa). If you are having connection issues, select the Wi-Fi with stronger

signal.

6. Does the Linksys RE9000 support DFS Channels?

No, the Linksys RE9000 does not support DFS Channels.

My Linksys RE9000 is not detecting my Wi-Fi during setup

Scenario: My Linksys RE9000 is not detecting my Wi-Fi during setup.

The Linksys RE9000 MU-MIMO Range Extender uses a dedicated 5 GHz band as the backhaul

(uplink) connection to a Dual-Band router. If your Linksys RE9000 is unable to see the 5 GHz

network, here are things you can check (in the following order):

You must have a dual-band router

Make sure that the 5 GHz band on your wireless router is enabled, working and

broadcasting.

If the extender is too far away, try to move the extender closer for setup. After setup, you

can move it to another location.

The Linksys RE9000 does NOT support Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) channels. If

your router supports DFS channels, it is possible that your router is using a DFS channel;

therefore, the extender will not detect the 5 GHz band.

NOTE: DFS channels are 52-64 and 100-140. You can contact support for the wireless router to

confirm if the router supports DFS channels and if it is using one of the DFS channels. If it does,

they need to change the router’s 5 GHz channel to a non-DFS channel and then run the setup again

on the Linksys RE9000.

Setting up the Linksys RE9000 to Range Extender mode

The Linksys RE9000 MU-MIMO Range Extender can be set up in two ways, through Range

Extender mode or Access Point mode. This article will show you the steps on how you can set it up

on Range Extender mode.

Before you begin, make sure to have the following:

An existing Dual-Band wireless router or access point (5 GHz band is used as the dedicated

backhaul connection)

A computer or tablet with Wi-Fi capability

Your existing Wi-Fi name and password

Step 1:

Turn ON the Linksys RE9000 and wait for the light indicator to blink orange.

Step 2:

Using a wireless device, locate and connect to the Linksys Extender Setup Wi-Fi.

Step 3:

Once it is connected, open a browser and go to http://extender.linksys.com to launch setup. Then

click on Start Setup.

NOTE: If the Linksys RE9000 has not detected a DHCP server, it defaults to its IP address,

192.168.1.1.

QUICK TIP: If you want to bypass the setup wizard, click on Manual Setup.

Step 4:

Select the As a wireless range extender option and click Next.

Step 5:

Connect to your existing 5 GHz Wi-Fi.

NOTE: Setup will scan for 5 GHz networks only. A dual-band network is required since it uses

the 5 GHz radio as the upstream connection to your existing dual-band Wi-Fi. If you do not have a

Dual-Band Wi-Fi, you can use the Access Point option.
