How do I extend my Tenda Nova MX3 Mesh WiFi network coverage by adding more nodes?

[LaJames]

Expanding your WiFi coverage with the Tenda Nova MX3 Dual Band Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 system is straightforward. Here's how to add new nodes to your existing network:

Before you begin, ensure the new node is fresh from the box or has been reset to factory settings. Resetting is crucial if the node was previously used.

You have several options for adding new nodes:

1. Using the MESH Button:

   • On an existing node (the one already part of your network), press the MESH button for about 1 to 3 seconds. The LED indicator will begin to blink green rapidly, signaling it's searching for another node.
   • Within two minutes, press the MESH button on the new node for 1 to 3 seconds. The new node will then negotiate and connect with the existing node.

2. Through the Tenda WiFi App:

   • Open the Tenda WiFi App and ensure you are managing your network.
   • Navigate to the "My WiFi" page within the app.
   • Follow the on-screen prompts to add the new node to your network.

3. Using the Web UI:

   • Access the web UI of an existing node (usually by entering the IP address in a web browser).
   • Go to the "Network Status" page.
   • Follow the instructions provided to integrate the new node.

By following these steps, you can easily increase your WiFi coverage using additional Tenda Nova MX3 nodes.
