Scenario!I:

Setup with a Comtrend Gateway that supports WifiXtend2.0™

(Continue to Step B)

Scenario II:

Setup with either a non-Comtrend Gateway or

a Comtrend Gateway that does not support WifiXtend2.0™

(Continue to Step E)

WifiXtend2.0™ is Comtrend’s WiFi Mesh technology for enhanced whole-home WiFi

coverage. The WAP-5903 and select Comtend Gatways support WifiXtend2.0™. When

WifiXtend2.0™ technologies are being utilized, the WiFi network will automatically

become a single network with one SSID and Password per band.

Scenario I: Setting up the WiFi Mesh Extender with a Comtrend Gateway

that Supports WifiXtend2.0™

1. Use the included Ethernet cable to connect one end into the LAN port of the

Comtrend Gateway that supports WifiXtend2.0™ and the other

end into the UPLINK port of

the WAP-5903.

2. Power on the WAP-5903 by

connecting one end of the

Power Adapter into the Power

Port of the WAP-5903 and the

other end into an outlet. The

Ethernet Pairing will

automatically start processing

and the WAP-5903’s LED will

begin blinking green.

3. Wait until the WAP-5903’s LED

is solid green. This means that

the WAP-5903 is paired and

grouped in the same WiFi

mesh network as the

Comtrend gateway.

4. If you are setting up more

than one WAP-5903, then please follow instructions 1-3 with the additional WAP-

5903 units.

5. After the WAP-5903 is paired, move it to the nearest outlet where additional WiFi

coverage is needed. Once it is plugged in, wait for the LED to light up solid blue,

which means it is ready.

The WiFi Mesh Network is Ready to Use!

6. The WiFi mesh network is automatically using the original WiFi configuration on the

Comtrend Gateway. If you would like to further change the network settings, then

please refer to the Comtrend Gateway’s User Manual to make changes directly to

the Gateway.

Scenario II: Setting up the WiFi Mesh Extender with a Non-Comtrend

Gateway/Comtrend Gateway that does not Support WifiXtend2.0™.

Note: This scenario requires at least two WAP-5903 units to create a connection.

Red

The WAP-5903 is placed too far away from

the Comtrend Gateway, and is receiving a

weak WiFi signal. Action Required: Move

the WAP-5903 closer to the Comtrend

Gateway.

1. Optional: Disable the WiFi on the non-Comtrend modem/router. This will help

improve the performance of the WiFi Mesh Extender and avoid confusing the

Internet-enabled devices.

2. Use the included Ethernet

cable to connect one end

into the LAN port of the

existing home modem/router

and the other end into the

UPLINK port of the first WAP-

5903.

3. Power on this WAP-5903 by

connecting one end of the

Power Adapter into the Power

Port of the WAP-5903 and the

other end into an outlet.

Setup the WiFi Network

4. You can now use your computer’s wireless configuration utility to

search for a Wireless Network name such as: Extender2368 or

Extender2368-5G. (The default SSID of this extender device is

‘Extender2368’, and 2368 is for reference. It is the last 4 digits of

the device’s MAC number.)

5. When you are prompted to input the security key, the WiFi Key

(password) can be found on the label at the back of the WAP-

5903 device.

6. Click the OK button to connect to the network.

7. Open your web browser, and input ‘http://extender-setup/’ in the address bar.

8. The system will prompt you to input the username and password. Default username

is ‘root’ and password is ‘12345’. Click the OK button to continue.

9. After logging into the Web page, input the new SSID for both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz

fields. The user can setup a new password by inputting it in both the Key fields. Click

the Apply/Save button to complete setup.

10. After applying the wireless setting the WAP-5903 will reboot. When the WAP-5903’s

LED is solid green it means it is ready.

11. You can now connect the additional WAP-5903. Power on the additional WAP-

5903 by connecting one end of the Power Adapter into the Power Port of the

WAP-5903 and the other end into an outlet. The Ethernet Pairing will automatically

start processing and the WAP-5903’s LED will begin blinking green.

12. Wait until the WAP-5903’s LED is solid green. This means that the WAP-5903 is

paired and grouped in the same WiFi mesh network as the first WAP-5903.

13. You can now move the additional WAP-5903 extender to the nearest outlet where

more WiFi coverage is needed. Once plugged in, wait for the LED to light up solid

blue, which means it is ready.

14. Repeat steps 11-13 to add more WAP-5903 extenders to the mesh

network.

The WiFi Mesh Network is Ready to Use!

Chapter 2: Web User Interface

2.1 Default Settings

The factory default settings of this device are summarized below.

• LAN IP address: 192.168.2.252

• LAN subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

• Administrative access (username: root , password: 12345)

• WLAN access: enabled

Technical Note

During power on, the device initializes all settings to default values. It will then read

the configuration profile from the permanent storage section of flash memory. The

default attributes are overwritten when identical attributes with different values are

configured. The configuration profile in permanent storage can be created via the

web user interface or telnet user interface, or other management protocols. The

factory default configuration can be restored either by pushing the reset button for

more than five seconds until the power indicates LED blinking or by clicking the

Restore Default Configuration option in the Restore Settings screen.

2.2 IP Configuration

DHCP MODE

When the WAP-5903 powers up, the onboard DHCP server will switch on. Basically,

the DHCP server issues and reserves IP addresses for LAN devices, such as your

PC.

To obtain an IP address f r om the DCHP server, f o l low the steps provided below.

NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows. However,

the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS).

Check your OS support documentation for further details.

STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You

may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connection

icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.

STEP 3: Select Obtain an IP address automatically as shown below.

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

If you experience difficulty with DHCP mode, you can try static IP mode instead.

STATIC IP MODE

In static IP mode, you assign IP settings to your PC manually.

Follow these steps to configure your PC IP address to use subnet 192.168.2.x.

NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows. However,

the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS).

Check your OS support documentation for further details.

STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You

may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connection

icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.

STEP 3: Change the IP address to the 192.168.2.x (1<x<252) subnet with subnet

mask of 255.255.255.0. The screen should now display as shown below.

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

2.3 Login Procedure

Perform the following steps to login to the web user interface.

NOTE: The default settings can be found in 2.1 Default Settings.

STEP 1: Start the Internet browser and enter the default IP address for the device

in the Web address field. For example, if the default IP address is

192.168.2.252, type http://192.168.2.252.

STEP 2: A dialog box will appear, s u c h a s t h e o n e b e l o w. Enter the default

username and password, as defined in section 2.1 Default Settings.

Click OK to continue.

NOTE: If you can’t see the web management interface, and you’re being

prompted to input user name and password again, it means you didn’t input

username and password correctly. Please retype user name and password

again. If you’re certain about the user name and password you type are correct,

please go to section 3.7 to perform a factory reset or to set the password back

to the default value.

The login password can be changed later (see section3.8).

STEP 3: After successfully logging in for the first time, you will reach this screen.
