Connection help

Don’t know if you’re connecting via router or extender?

• The easiest way is to compare the signal strength displayed on your device with the

extender switched on and off. The extender simply relays the data from your hub/router.

It’s your device that controls which signal it connects to.

Can’t connect extender to router

• If the range lights continue to scroll back and forth for more than 1 minute after

connection attempt. Check your hub/router is switched on and try moving your

extender closer to it.

• If your device often loses internet access and the extender’s Too far or a bit too far light

is on, try moving the extender to another socket.

• If you are trying to use WPS but it doesn’t work (Too far Too close and (red) lights

continue to ﬂash), it may be that it’s incompatible with the WPS function in the extender.

Try switching the extender Off then On and repeat Method 1. If it still fails, follow the

steps in Method 2, to connect without using the WPS button.

• If you’re unable to connect using Method 2, check you have selected the correct

wireless network and you’ve entered the correct wireless key.

Can’t connect to internet

• Check your router is connected to the internet and your wi-ﬁ is working correctly.

Can’t connect your device to wireless

• Make sure your device is correctly set-up to connect to your hub/router before trying

to use the extender.

• Microwaves and some electrical equipment may interfere with the wireless signal.

• Check the lights on your extender and make sure you are in Good range, if not see the

section ‘Move extender to optimum location’.

• Thick/concrete walls and ceilings will affect wireless performance.

All lights are off

• Check the power socket is working and switched on.

• Check the extender is turned on (the button is on the top).On/Off

Reset to factory settings

If you need to access advanced settings, have

forgotten your password or if the extender stops

working you can reset it to its factory settings.

1 Make sure the extender is plugged

in and switched on.

2 Press the Reset button for 1 second

to restore factory default settings.

You can connect an additional device to the ethernet port that will use the wi-ﬁ extension

at the same time as your wireless devices.

Connect your device to the extender’s ethernet port using an ethernet cable.

Reset button

The band switch

This switch sets the frequency band your extender uses to connect to the hub/router.

By default your extender uses the 2.4GHz band for maximum range and compatibility.

If you have a dual-band hub/router (e.g. BT Home Hub 4 or 5), selecting the 5GHz

band may improve performance (speed) as there is less wireless congestion.

To change to the 5GHz band, unplug the

extender, move the band switch to the

5 position and go to step

Method 2 -

Without WPS button.

Selecting the 5GHz band may reduce the range and you

will need to move the extender closer to your hub/router.

Method 1 - Using WPS button

Connection to your router is very easy if it supports WPS; most recent routers do

(e.g. BT Home Hub 3 and later, or any other router that has a WPS button). If your router

doesn’t support WPS or this method fails, go to ‘Method 2 - Without WPS button’ opposite.

1 Plug the extender into a power socket near your broadband wireless router

(e.g. in the same room). Check the extender button on the top is switched on. On/Off

Wait 20 seconds for the extender to boot up. The light will be steady blue and Power

the Too close Too far and red lights will be ﬂashing together.

2 Press the button on your router.WPS

3 Press the button on the extender (for 1 second) within 2 minutes.WPS

4 Wait until the light stops ﬂashing and one of the range lights is solid. The extender WPS

is now conﬁgured with your hub/router, and you’re ready to ﬁnd its optimum location,

see

below.

If this fails (WPS light stops ﬂashing and the Too far Too close and red

lights continue to ﬂash), please use ‘Method 2 - Without WPS button’ opposite.

Note: the WPS button on your extender is only used to connect to the router and can’t

be used to connect devices.

Method 2 - Without WPS button

If you don’t have a WPS button on your hub/router, you can set up your extender

using the web based set-up with an internet browser.

Important: Before following these instructions, make sure your computer is

not connected to the internet (unplug its ethernet cable or disconnect from

your wi-ﬁ network).

1 Plug the extender into a power socket near your broadband wireless router

(e.g. in the same room). Check the extender button on the top is switched On/Off

on. Wait 20 seconds for the extender to boot up. The light will be steady Power

blue and the Too close Too far and red lights will be ﬂashing together.

2 Connect your computer to the extender using option A or B below:

Option A - Connect wirelessly

- Use the wireless connection software or settings on your computer to display

the list of available wireless networks in your area.

- Find your extender in the list and select it; it’s called .BTWiﬁExt1200-XXX

- Enter your extender’s wireless key (printed on the back of this guide).

- Complete the connection on your computer.

Option B - Connect using the ethernet cable

- Insert the ethernet cable into the extender and the other end into

your computer.

3 Open your internet browser and enter in the address ﬁeld.http://192.168.1.1

- Enter your extender’s (printed on the back of this guide), Admin password

then click .Login

- Click at the bottom then follow the on-screen connection wizard.Start

4 When you click your browser will lose connection to the extender Finish

(ignore browser errors). The extender’s range indicator light will stop ﬂashing

on successful connection. The extender is now conﬁgured with your hub/router,

and you’re ready to ﬁnd its optimum location, see

below.

Full instructions on how to connect devices using different operating systems

are in the Frequently Asked Questions, available at .bt.com/producthelp

1 Plug in the extender halfway between your hub/router and the area you wish to

extend wi-ﬁ to.

2 Give the extender 20 seconds to boot up, then the range lights will scroll back and forth

while it searches and connects to your router. After about 30 seconds, the ﬂashing

will stop and the signal quality will be shown. Ideally the light will become Good range

solid blue and you can go to point 5.

If the range lights continue to scroll back and forth for more than 1 minute.

Check your hub/router is switched on and try moving your extender closer to it.

3 Check the lights and if necessary move the extender closer or further away

from your hub/router depending on the light status below. Then check the

light status again. A range light will be steady blue or red.

The extender gives you two new wireless networks, one on the 2.4GHz band and

one on the 5GHz band.

The 5GHz band will give the best performance when close to the extender, (EXT5)

the 2.4GHz band is best for range.(EXT2)

1 The extender’s network name is the same as your hub/router with

EXT2 EXT5- (2.4GHz band) and - (5GHz band) added to the front.

For example:

Hub/router wireless network name: BTHub5-1234

New extended network names: and EXT2- BTHub5-1234 EXT5- BTHub5-1234

2 From your device, select the network you wish to connect to.

3 Enter the wireless key – this is the same as your hub/router.

2 Move extender to optimum location Connect your devices3

Too close (red)

Move the extender further from the hub and

closer to the area you want to receive wi-ﬁ.

A bit too close (blue)

The extender will work but there’s less

wi-ﬁ extension.

Good range (blue)

Good router signal strength. Ideal location for

maximum performance.

A bit too far (blue)

The extender will work but a bit too far from

your hub/router for best performance.

Too far (red) or scrolling back and forth

for more than 1min

Move the extender closer to your hub/router.

It’s normal for the range lights to change occasionally. This is because wireless

signals can vary due to other factors e.g. electrical appliances/devices.
