Setting up the Lian Li Lancool Ii Mesh in your smart home network is a straightforward process that can significantly improve your Wi-Fi coverage and stability. This guide provides simple steps to get your mesh system up and running quickly.
Prerequisites for Setup
- Lian Li Lancool Ii Mesh units (at least two)

Physical Installation
Begin by placing the mesh units in optimal locations around your home. Position the primary unit near your modem or router, and place secondary units in areas where Wi-Fi signal needs boosting. Ensure each unit is plugged into a power outlet.
Connecting the Primary Unit
Connect the primary Lian Li Lancool Ii Mesh unit directly to your modem using an Ethernet cable if available. Power it on and wait for the indicator lights to stabilize, indicating readiness.
Adding Secondary Units
Power on the secondary units. They will automatically attempt to connect to the primary unit via mesh. Use the Lian Li app to detect and add these units to your network.
Configuring the Network
Open the Lian Li app on your smartphone or computer. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password. Confirm that all units are connected and functioning properly.
Troubleshooting Tips

- Ensure all units are powered on and indicator lights are normal.
- Restart the app or device if the setup process stalls.
- Update firmware through the app if prompted.
Additional Tips for Optimal Performance
- Place units in open areas, away from thick walls or metal objects.
