3.1 Reyee mesh
Test Item | Reyee Mesh |

Test Purpose | Zero-Configuration Networking for Pairing Multiple Reyee device |
Test
Procedure
and Expected
Results| (1) The WAN port of the primary router is connected to the Internet
and completes initialization. Clients such as mobile phones or PCs can find
the SSID of the primary router and access the Internet.
(2) Move the secondary router next to the primary router. You are advised to
place the secondary router within 2 m (6.56 ft) away from the primary router
without any obstacle. Power up and turn on the secondary router.
(3) Press the Mesh button on the primary router. The Mesh LED of the primary
router starts blinking. After 1 to 3 seconds, the LED on the secondary router
starts fast blinking. When the LEDs on the primary and secondary routers are
solid on, a Reyee mesh connection is successfully set up.
(4) Disconnect the secondary router and move it to the position to be tested
for Wi-Fi coverage. Power up the router, and wait for 3 minutes until the LED
is solid on.
(5) Log in to the Eweb of the primary router. You can check the mesh
connection status on the homepage.

Test Purpose | Test the extreme performance of a household device. |
Test
Procedure
and Expected
Results| The WAN port of the primary router is connected to the Internet and
completes
initialization. Clients such as mobile phones or PCs can find the SSID of the
primary router
and access the Internet.
(1) Install WiFi Moho or another app with the Wi-Fi scanning function on your
mobile phone, check the interference analysis result, and find the optimal
channel.
(2)
Log in to the Eweb of the router to configure a specified channel.
Choose More > WLAN > Radio Frequency.
If the interference is severe, choose a lower channel bandwidth to prevent
network freezing. The router supports channel bandwidths of 20 MHz and 40
MHz. You are advised to select 20 MHz at 2.4 GHz and keep the default
bandwidth at 5 GHz. You are advised to select 80 MHz at 5 GHz when testing the
network speed. Click Save to make the configuration take effect immediately.
(3) Choose WLAN > Wi-Fi.
Disable Dual-Band Single SSID. Configure SSIDs for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
respectively. Connect to the SSID of 5 GHz when testing speeds.
(4) If the device has an external antenna, keep the antenna upright, and keep
the client facing the testing device.
(5) When the client connects to the SSID, ensure that the client is within 2 m
(6.56 ft) away from the testing device.
(6) Select the optimal testing server when testing the speed by Speedtest.
(7) Test for three consecutive times, record the values and calculate the
average.

3.4 Repeater
Test Item | Repeater Tests |
---|---|
Test Purpose | Verify the Reyee Mesh function and the Other Router repeater |
function of the repeater.
Test
Procedure
and Expected
Results| Connecting the Device to a Reyee Router (Reyee Mesh)
(1)
Connect the mesh repeater to a power source, and wait for 1-2 minutes until
the status
of the center green LED changes from blinking to solid on. The mesh repeater
is started.
(2) Press the Reyee mesh button on the primary Reyee router or connect the
network cable to the primary Reyee router for automatic networking. When the
three bars of the LED are on, Reyee mesh is successfully set up. Then the
default Wi-Fi disappears, and the Wi-Fi name and password are synchronized
with the primary router. When the signal LED is solid white, the network
connection is successful. Clients can connect to the amplified Wi-Fi of the
primary router to access the Internet.
(3) If the center dot LED is solid red, the network connection fails. Check
whether the primary router can access the Internet. If the center dot is
solid orange, the connection with the primary router fails. Move the mesh
repeater to a position closer to the primary router, remove obstacles, and
press the Reyee mesh button on the primary router again.
(4) Place the repeater in a position requiring signal coverage.
Note
The distance between the repeater and the primary router is less than two
walls for a faster network speed.
Connect the Device to a Modem or the Other Router
(1) Connect the mesh repeater to a power source, and wait for 1-2 minutes
until the status of the center green LED changes from blinking to solid on.
The mesh repeater is started.
(2) Search for the wireless network with the Wi-Fi name @Ruijie-sXXXX by using
a mobile phone or laptop. The mobile phone or laptop can log in to the web
management page through a browser.
(3) Select Wireless Repeater
Wireless
repeater mode: Click Wireless Repeater, select the Wi-Fi of the primary
router, and enter the Wi-Fi password of the primary router to connect to the
Wi-Fi
In
wireless repeater mode, the device extends Wi-Fi signals and disables its DHCP
function. When clients connect to the wireless network, the primary router
assigns addresses to them. When the device in wireless repeater mode extends
the network of the primary router, the WAN interface is unchanged. If you
connect the network cable to the WAN interface, the device automatically
switches to the wired repeater mode.
