Connecting the Main Router
Place the main router in a central location for optimal coverage. Connect it to your modem using an Ethernet cable.
Plug in the power adapter and turn on the router. Wait for the LED indicators to stabilize, indicating the device is ready.
Adding Satellite Nodes
Position satellite nodes around your home, ideally in locations where Wi-Fi signal is weak. Plug each node into a power outlet.
The nodes will automatically attempt to connect to the main router. Wait for the LED indicators to confirm a successful connection.

During setup, you can create a network name (SSID) and password. The app will also check for firmware updates and apply them if necessary.
Tips for Optimal Performance
- Place nodes in open, central locations away from thick walls or metal objects.
- Avoid placing nodes near microwaves or cordless phones.
- Ensure firmware is always up to date for security and performance improvements.
- Use the app to monitor network health and connected devices.
Final Checks and Troubleshooting
Verify that all nodes are connected and the Wi-Fi network is active on your devices. If issues arise:
- Restart the main router and nodes.
- Ensure all devices are within range.
- Check for firmware updates via the app.
- Reset the system and repeat the setup if problems persist.
