This FAQ addresses most issues customers will have with setting up the Belkin Wireless Range Extender for use on their network. If this does not resolve your connectivity issues, please contact technical support and we will be glad to assist you.

NOTE: Before starting this sequence, it is best to reset the router to the factory settings. To do this with the router powered on, insert a dull thin object, like a pen or paperclip, into the hole in the rear of the router marked "reset". Press and release - all the indicator lights should flash momentarily and then return to a normal disconnected state.

Customer Comment: "...thanks a lot for the extra information. I am receiving a wireless signal in my room where I was not able to receive signal! I really enjoy the range extender and I think Belkin needs to add some of those instructions in their booklet. Thanks again for all the help."

1. Connect Range Extender via wired LAN connection to the existing wireless router utilizing the included network cable.
2. Plug in the power to Belkin Wireless Range Extender. (reset the router following instructions above)
3. Install The Belkin Wireless Range Extender Utility software on an existing networked PC (a PC attached to the same network router)
4. Run the Range Extender Utility and hit refresh. Your Range Extender should appear after a short time as seen below.
   
5. Select -> [Set IP Address] and set the IP address and subnet to an unused address on your network as shown in the example below. In this example the wireless network exists in the 192.168.1.0 network range and uses the 255.255.255.0 subnet. (Most user networks default to this range and subnet) 192.168.1.254 happens to be an unused IP address within the wireless network's range in this example. Once the IP is set - hit OK and save. If you receive an error - hit refresh or close and restart the utility.
   
6. Next select [UR/AP] and check that the range extender is set to UR. In most cases, this will be the desired setting which will extend the existing wireless network range without having to reconnect to a second AP (Access Point) when out-of-range of the first AP (your wireless router). Select the choice and hit OK.
   
7. Next select the "Web Management" button. This will open up a new browser window where you can make specific changes relative to your network. Start with basic and review the IP settings. Next select "Security" and if the specific settings for your wireless network have not been automatically detected, you must now set them here. Each security setting and SSID here MUST BE identical to your existing router and wireless clients for UR mode.
   
8. One you are sure you have connectivity - you may now choose to filter out any MAC Addresses and wireless clients or change the IP Addess of the Extender. Be sure to save your settings on each page.
9. Once all of your security settings set, the router can be disconnected from the network cable and moved to a location just inside the range of your existing router and powered up. If the red light does not go out after a 10-15 seconds - you may now press the "autoconnect button" on the rear of the unit to force a reconnect to the wireless network. If the red light still does not go out - you are most likely out-of-range of your wireless router. See below for more information on adjusting placement for the best wireless ranges.
