1. Connect to the Router:
   • Wired Connection: Connect your computer to one of the router's LAN ports using an Ethernet cable.
   • Wireless Connection: Connect your wireless device (laptop, smartphone) to the router's default Wi-Fi network. The default Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password are usually printed on a label on the bottom of the router.
2. Access the Web Interface: Open a web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge) and enter the default IP address of the router in the address bar. The default IP address is typically 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. Refer to the label on your router for the exact address.

4. Run Setup Wizard: Follow the on-screen instructions of the setup wizard to configure your internet connection, change the default Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password, and set an administrator password for the router. It is highly recommended to change the default administrator password for security.

2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your client device (e.g., wireless adapter, printer).
3. The devices will automatically connect to the Wi-Fi network.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Dual Band Operation

The OLAX Scorpio X60 operates on two frequency bands: 2.4GHz and 5GHz.

• 2.4GHz Band: Offers wider coverage and better penetration through walls, suitable for general internet use and devices further from the router.
• 5GHz Band: Provides faster speeds and lower latency, ideal for gaming, 4K streaming, and devices closer to the router.

You can configure separate SSIDs for each band or use a single SSID with Smart Connect (if available) for the router to automatically assign devices to the optimal band.

5.2 EasyMesh Technology

The router supports EasyMesh, allowing you to create a seamless whole-home Wi-Fi network by adding compatible EasyMesh devices. This eliminates Wi-Fi dead zones and provides a single network name for all devices.

1. Ensure your OLAX Scorpio X60 is set up as the primary router.
2. Refer to the instructions provided with your EasyMesh compatible extender or satellite unit for pairing. Typically, this involves pressing a button on both devices or configuring through the web interface.
3. Once paired, your devices will automatically connect to the strongest Wi-Fi signal as you move around your home (Smart Roaming).

5.3 Parental Controls

Manage internet access for specific devices or users through the parental control features in the router's web interface.

• Access Schedules: Set specific times when internet access is allowed or blocked for certain devices.
• Website Filtering: Block access to inappropriate websites or categories.
• Device Management: Monitor connected devices and their internet usage.

5.4 Guest Network

Create a separate Wi-Fi network for guests to provide internet access without sharing your main network password or allowing access to your internal network resources.

1. Log in to the router's web interface.
2. Navigate to the Guest Network settings (usually under Wireless or Network settings).
3. Enable the Guest Network for the 2.4GHz band.
4. Set a unique SSID and password for the guest network.
5. Configure any desired access restrictions or time limits.
