How do I restore the extender to its factory default settings?
1. Use a sharp object such as a pen or straightened paper clip to press
and hold the Factory Reset button on the extender for at least five
seconds until the Power LED lights amber.
2. Release the Factory Reset button and wait for the extender to
reboot.
The extender resets and returns to the factory default settings.
I enabled a wireless MAC filter, wireless access control, or access
control list (ACL) on my router. What should I do when installing
the extender?
When a device connects through the extender to your router, the MAC
address of the device shown on the router is translated to another MAC
address. If your router’s MAC filter, wireless access control, or ACL is
enabled, the device connects to the extender but cannot get an IP address
from the extender and cannot access the Internet.
To allow your device to receive an IP address from the extender and access
the Internet, you must provide the translated MAC address to the router.
1. Log in to your router and disable the MAC filter, wireless access
control, or ACL.
For more information about how to disable your router’s MAC filter,
wireless access control, or ACL, see your router’s documentation.
