Wavlink extenders are not just of premium quality but are also feature rich. This is the reason why almost all the modern households as well as office spaces have a wifi range extender from Wavlink. Now to get benefit of this device, conducting errorless setup is mandatory. No matter which Wavlink wifi 5 series extender you got your hands on, the setup process for almost all of them is identical. So in this particular post we’ll share full information about the Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup process. From setup requirements to two different setup methods the guide will turn out to be helpful for you. 

Requirements For WPS Method 

The WPS method is the easiest option for conducting Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup. The requirements are also very few. Here’s everything that you need:

• A router. It must be linked rightly to the internet source. Additionally, it must support the WPS method. 
• Next up, you need a power socket which is close to your router. 

Remember that wifi protected setup method doesn’t provide you the chance for alteration of default settings. For that you need to login into the management page. This method just allows you to quickly extend the wireless coverage. 

Wavlink Wifi 5 Extender Setup- Using WPS Button 

The setup process is quite easy. So start by activating the wifi 5 range extender. You need to activate the device close to the modem. Now for letting the extender become discoverable you need to wait for its power indicator to turn stable and solid. 

Moving further, on your extender push the WPS key. The WPS indicator should blink as you click the button. But in case it doesn’t then you need to click the button again till the indicator starts to blink. 

Thereafter, take a turn to your router. Press its WPS key as well. Same here the indicator should blink. Now you have to wait. Wait for the indicators to turn stable. As this means the synchronisation is now complete. 

Finally, you can now unplug the Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup from its current location. So for better connectivity you have to place the device in an area which receives at least 50 percent signals from the router and is nearby to the area where you had problems with your router. As you plug back the extender, it will itself sync back with the router. But in case it doesn’t then it means the placement is not appropriate. So you have to change the placement spot. 

Setup Via Web Browser 

The second option that you can consider for Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup is done using a web browser. The requirements for this method are:

• A router. Again it must have its link to the internet. 
• Next up, you must have knowledge about the SSID as well as the passkey of your current network. 
• A vacant electrical outlet for turning on the wifi 5 extender.
• Thereafter, a smart device. It can be any device from your collection like a laptop, cellphone, iPad or a computer system. 
• Lastly, you must keep the Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup manual by your side. Because this manual consists of every basic information for the specific wifi 5 extender model that you have picked up. 

Did you already give the setup process a try? If not, then move to the installation steps directly. But if yes, and the outcome was not favourable then first conduct the factory reset on the extender and only then proceed with the setup steps as mentioned below. Because a reset will lay a smooth surface for re-installation of the device. Therefore, you won’t come across any errors during the Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup. 

✓ Installation Steps

• First plot the wifi 5 extender halfway from the router and the area where you need extended wireless coverage. Make sure that the chosen spot is receiving not less than 50 percent signals from the router. 
• Thereafter, turn on the wifi repeater and hold on for its power indicator to go stable. 
• Now take your smart device. In addition to it, learn about the defaults that are written on the extender’s base/bottom panel. 
• Moving further, turn on the wifi of your device. From the list, link to the identity that you just learned about. 
• As the connection is built, open the browser. The browser must be compatible. Few recommendations for the same are internet explorer, chrome, firefox, safari and edge. 
• Now in the URL blank type http://192.168.10.1. With this click Enter key.
• Finally, for making the Wavlink wifi 5 extender setup page accessible, fill in the password. It is admin if never altered before. With that tap on Login.
