Placing the device a lot far from the host device creates trouble for you in configuring it.

Also avoid placing them in corners and next two thick walls.
- When placement is decided you need to power up the device by connecting it with the power outlet. Wait for your extender device to boot properly till the LED on the device turns solid green. When the device LED gets stable you can initiate the configuration.
Configuration Of Device

- First push the WPS button on the router device and you will notice its WPS LED will start blinking faster. Within the next 2 minutes you need to push the WPS button on the extender device.
- After pushing the button on both devices you have to keep an eye on your range extender device. Its LED indicator will help you in confirming that the process is a success or a failure.
- Note: Prior to initiating the connection, your router is compatible with WPS based connection.
