Overview

Front

This light indicates the power and the Wi-Fi Protected Setup status. After

initial setup, if you have client devices, such as wireless printers, that

support Wi-Fi Protected Setup, then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup to

automatically configure wireless security for your wireless network.

Power 

When the extender is powered on, resets to factory

defaults, or upgrades its firmware, the light flashes slowly

(about every three seconds). When the extender is ready for use,

the light is continuously lit. If there is an error, the light flashes

quickly (about every second); disconnect the extender from the

wall mount socket, wait two seconds, and then reconnect it.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup 

When the Wi-Fi Protected Setup process

is active, the light flashes slowly (about every two seconds) for

two minutes. When the Wi-Fi Protected Setup is successful,

the light is continuously lit. If there is an error, the light flashes

quickly (about every second) for two minutes; please wait and

try again.
