Installation and Setup
Pre-configuration and Pairing
The UeeVii Wireless Bridge units are designed for easy setup. They come pre-configured for plug-and-play operation. One unit acts as the 'Master' (AP mode) and the other as the 'Slave' (STA mode). Ensure the switch on the unit connected to your main network (router/modem) is set to 'AP' (Master), and the unit at the remote location is set to 'STA' (Slave).

To pair the devices, follow these steps:
- Set one unit to 'H' (Master bridge) using the internal switch.
- Set the other unit to 'C' (Slave bridge) using the internal switch.
- With both units powered on and connected via their PoE adapters, press the reset button on both units simultaneously.
- The units will pair successfully when their displays show the same channel number.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your UeeVii Wireless Bridge, consider the following common solutions:
- No Connection/Failure to Pair:
- Verify that both units are powered on and receiving power via their PoE adapters.
- Ensure the Master unit is set to 'H' (AP) and the Slave unit is set to 'C' (STA).
- Confirm that the Ethernet cables are securely connected and are capable of PoE.
- Perform the pairing process again by pressing the reset button on both units simultaneously.
- Check for a clear line of sight between the two units. Any obstructions can significantly degrade performance.
- Intermittent Connection:
- Ensure the units are firmly mounted and not susceptible to movement from wind.
- Check for new physical obstructions that may have appeared in the line of sight.
- Verify that the PoE adapters are functioning correctly and providing stable power.
- Slow Speeds:
- Confirm a clear line of sight. Even partial obstructions can reduce throughput.
- Ensure the units are aligned as precisely as possible towards each other.
- Check for potential 2.4GHz interference from other wireless devices in the area.
- Indicator Lights Dim:
- The indicator lights can appear dim in bright daylight. Cup your hands around them to verify their status.
