5. Setup

The FRITZ!Repeater 2400 offers two primary setup methods: WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for quick wireless connection, and LAN Bridge mode for wired connection to your router.

4. Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your Wi-Fi router (often labeled WPS or with a Wi-Fi symbol).
5. The repeater will automatically connect to your router. Once connected, the Wi-Fi LEDs on the repeater will light up steadily, indicating signal strength.
