Wired devices can be connected directly to LAN port for Internet access. Wireless devices can use the network name (SSID) & password (see the sticker on the backside of Azores Router) to connect to Internet.
MESH SETUP STEPS
Choose one of the following methods to setup your Mesh Set(AX3000 PRO-DUO).
Option 1: Wireless Networking
- Main AP refers to SINGLE ROUTER SETUP STEPS to complete the connection.
- Place the Satellite AP at a proper location based on your home layout.
- Just power on the Satellite AP and wait for about 5 minutes.When the LED is Steady Green, then the Mesh networking is successful.
Tip: To optimize wireless performance, place the Satellite AP in a location that minimizes the barrier (such as wall, door, and floor) between the Main AP and Satellite AP. We recommend one wall/door/floor between the Main AP and Satellite AP.
Option 2: Wired Networking
- Main AP refers to SINGLE ROUTER SETUP STEPS to complete the connection.
- Place the Satellite AP at a proper location based on the cable deployment in your home.
- Connect the Satellite AP to LAN port of your Main AP via network cable.
- Power on the Satellite AP. When the LED is Steady Green, then the Mesh networking is successful.
*Note:
(1) If you know there is a spot in your home, where the Wi-Fi signal is the weakest. Try place the Satellite AP midway between the Main AP and the weakest spot.
(2) When Main AP and Satellite AP pairing successfully, the SSID and Password would be same, that is showing on the backside of Main AP.
