Set up T6 to work as a satellite router

If you had already set up a seamless mesh Wi-Fi system by using one master router and one satellite router, but you still want to add a new T6 to extend the wireless network. There are two methods of sync between one Master and two Satellite. One is achieved using the panel T button, the other via the Master’s Web interface. Please follow one of the two methods to add a new Satellite router.

Then please click Adding equipment button. (P4)
Wait about 2 minutes for the sync to finish. The status LED runs in the same process as mentioned when using the panel T button.
During this process, the Master will reboot automatically. Therefore, your Phone may be disconnected from the Master and log out of the Master’s web page. You could login again if you want to see the sync status.(P5)
Adjust the position of the three routers. As you move them, check that the Status LED on the Satellites light solid green or orange until you find a good location.
Use your device to find and connect to any wireless network with the same Wi-Fi SSID and password that you use for the Master.

Method 2: Using the panel T button

Before adding a new Satellite router to the existing Mesh Wi-Fi System, please make sure the existing Mesh WiFi System is working normally.
Please place the new Satellite router near to the Master and power on.
Press and hold the panel T button on the Master for about 3 seconds until its status LED blinks between red and orange, which means the Master begins to sync to the Satellite router.(P2)
Wait about 30 seconds, the status LED on the Satellite router also blinks between red and orange.
Wait about 1 minute, the status LED on the Master will be green and blinking slowly, the Satellite will be solid green. In this case, it means the Master is synced to the Satellites successfully.
Relocate the new satellite router. If the status LED on the new Satellite is orange or red, please close it to your existing Mesh Wi-Fi system until the color turns Green. Then you could enjoy your internet.
