Setting up your BIGtec AC15-WT02 WiFi Range Extender is designed to be easy. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you connected: First, make sure your existing WiFi router is powered on and working correctly. Then, plug your AC15-WT02 into a power outlet that's within range of your current WiFi signal. It's best to place it where it can receive a strong signal from your router. Give the extender a moment to power up and stabilize its LED indicators. These lights will show you the strength of your WiFi connection. Next, grab your computer or mobile device and go to your WiFi settings. Look for and connect to a network named 'BIGtec_EXT'. With your device connected to 'BIGtec_EXT', open a web browser and type 'http://ap.setup' or 'http://192.168.10.1' into the address bar, then hit enter. This will take you to the extender's setup page. From there, follow the on-screen prompts to configure the device. Start by choosing your preferred language and clicking 'Next'. Then, select the mode you want to use; you can choose 'Repeater Mode', 'AP Mode', or 'Router Mode'. Pick the one that suits your needs and click 'Next'. The extender will then search for available WiFi networks. Choose your existing WiFi network from the list and click 'Next'. You'll be asked to enter the password for your existing WiFi network; do so and click 'Next'. You'll have the option to change the name (SSID) and password of your extended WiFi network, or you can keep them the same as your current network. Make your choices and click 'Next'. Review your settings, then click 'Apply' to save and apply the configuration. The extender will save your settings and restart, which may take a few minutes. Once it restarts, your extender is connected to your existing WiFi network and ready to go. You can now connect your devices to the extended WiFi network.
