Product Usage

Before configuring the device, you need to connect the VigorAP 810 to ADSL modem, router, or switch/hub in your network through the LAN A port of the access point using an Ethernet cable. The WPS button can be used to enable WPS function through the web user interface. Press and hold the button for more than 2 seconds to wait for client’s device making a network connection through WPS. When the orange LED blinks with 1 second cycle for 2 minutes, it means that the AP is waiting for wireless clients to connect with it. The Restore Default Settings button can be used to restore the default settings of the AP. To use this feature, turn on the router and press the button and keep it pressed for more than 10 seconds. The router will then restart with the factory default configuration. For safety reasons, keep the accessory kit away from children.
