4. Setup Instructions

The UeeVii Wireless Bridge Router Kit is designed for straightforward installation. The bridge units are pre-configured for a plug-and-play experience. If reconfiguration is necessary, pairing can be done using a simple dial mechanism.

4.1. Physical Installation and Power

The CPE5824 wireless bridge units can be mounted on poles or walls using the included hoops. Ensure a clear line of sight between the two bridge units for optimal performance.

• Pole Mounting: Use the provided hoops to secure the unit to a pole.
• Wall Mounting: Attach the unit securely to a wall.

Power can be supplied via the included 24V PoE adapters or a 12V DC power source.

4.3. Connection Scenarios

4.3.1. Point-to-Point (P2P) Connection

This setup extends your existing network from one location to another, acting as a wireless Ethernet cable.

1. Connect the Master CPE to your existing modem or router's LAN port using an Ethernet cable. Power the Master CPE via its PoE adapter.
2. Position the Slave CPE at the remote location, ensuring it has a clear line of sight to the Master CPE.
3. Connect the Slave CPE to the WAN port of the included AX3000 Router using an Ethernet cable. Power the Slave CPE via its PoE adapter.
4. The AX3000 Router will then provide Wi-Fi and wired network access at the remote location.

4.3.2. Starlink Signal Extension

This kit is designed for extending Starlink V2/V3 signals to remote areas.

1. Connect the Master CPE to your Starlink Router using a Starlink RJ45 Adapter and an Ethernet cable. Power the Master CPE via its PoE adapter.
2. Position the Slave CPE at the remote location (e.g., barn, garage), ensuring a clear line of sight to the Master CPE.
3. Connect the Slave CPE to the WAN port of the included AX3000 Router using an Ethernet cable. Power the Slave CPE via its PoE adapter.
4. The AX3000 Router will then provide Wi-Fi and wired network access, extending your Starlink coverage.

4.3.3. Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Connection

For connecting multiple remote devices, such as security cameras, to a central network point.

1. Connect the Master CPE to your network (e.g., NVR, switch) via its PoE adapter.
2. Deploy multiple Slave CPEs at various remote locations, each connected to a device (e.g., a security camera).
3. Ensure all Slave CPEs are within the 60-degree transmission angle of the Master CPE and have a clear line of sight.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1. LED Indicators

The CPE units feature LED indicators to show signal strength and operational status. Refer to the device's quick start guide for a detailed explanation of LED patterns.

5.2. Web User Interface (Web UI)

For advanced configuration and monitoring, the devices can be accessed via a web-based user interface. Connect a computer to the LAN port of the CPE or the AX3000 router, then open a web browser and enter the default IP address (usually found in the quick start guide or on the device label).

6. Maintenance

The UeeVii Wireless Bridge units are designed for durability in outdoor conditions.

• Weather Resistance: The IP65-rated casing provides robust protection against dust, rain, and extreme temperatures (-20°C to 65°C / -4°F to 149°F). It is also anti-UV and anti-aging.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check the physical condition of the units and mounting hardware for any signs of damage or loose connections.
• Clear Line of Sight: Ensure that there are no new obstructions (e.g., growing trees, new buildings) that could block the line of sight between the bridge units, as this can degrade performance.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Network Connection:
  • Verify all Ethernet cables are securely connected.
  • Ensure both CPE units and the router are powered on.
  • Check the LED indicators on the CPE units for signal strength and link status.
  • Confirm a clear line of sight between the Master and Slave CPE units.
• Slow Network Speed:
  • Check for any new obstructions between the CPE units.
  • Ensure the CPE units are aligned correctly for optimal signal.
  • Reduce interference by checking for other wireless devices operating on similar frequencies.
• Starlink Connectivity Issues:
  • If using a Starlink system, ensure you are using an official Starlink RJ45 adapter. Aftermarket adapters may cause compatibility issues.
• Resetting Devices:
  • Both the CPE units and the AX3000 router have reset buttons. A long press (typically 5 seconds) can restore factory default settings if needed for troubleshooting.
