Connect Your Wavlink Extender and Router
First things first, you are supposed to connect your WiFi range extender and router with the help of an Ethernet cable. Is the cable you have working and free of cuts and other damages? If so, you can put it to use. In case it is not, replace the cable right away.
After having the one (a well-maintained Ethernet cable), connect its one end into your router and other end into your Wavlink extender.
Can’t Connect Router with the Extender?
Alas! I can’t connect my router to Wavlink extender. What to do? No worries! You can restart your router and try connecting it with your extender again. On the off chance, you are still having issues, update the router’s firmware. And, if updating the router’s firmware doesn’t help you either, it means that your router isn’t extender capable. In such a case, we suggest you replace your existing router with the same brand as of the range extender you have, perform Wavlink router setup, connect it with your extender and see the difference.
If you don’t want to consider our suggestion, contact the service provider of your router for making things happening for you.
Once a successful and secure connection is made between your range extender and router, jump on to next step.
Power on Your Wavlink Extender
You need to put your range extender on power. Plug it into a working wall socket. Ensure that the extender is receiving steady power from the outlet.
Switch on Your Client Device
Now, you need to turn on your computer or laptop and connect it to your WiFi extender using an Ethernet cable. For this, you must have access to another cable. If you don’t have, feel free to connect your client and Wavlink device using a wireless source.
Enter the Web Address
Now, you need to pull up an internet browser of your choice and input ap.setup in the address bar field.
Argh! Ap.setup not working! Need not to worry! Check the web address entrée and ensure that it is entered without typing errors.
If you entered the right address, you can:
- Try again later

If you are still having issues connecting to the web address, then try using the browser’s private window to access it.
