3. Impostazione

The NEWFAST AC1200 WiFi Extender offers two primary methods for setup: WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for quick configuration, and web interface setup for more detailed control.

3.1 WPS (configurazione protetta Wi-Fi)

This is the quickest way to set up your extender if your main router supports WPS.

1. Accensione: Plug the NEWFAST AC1200 WiFi Extender into an electrical outlet near your main router.
2. Activate Router WPS: Premi il pulsante WPS sul router wireless principale. Consulta il manuale del router per la posizione esatta e la procedura.
3. Activate Extender WPS: Within 2 minutes, press and hold the WPS button on the NEWFAST extender for 2-3 seconds.
4. Attendi la connessione: The extender's indicators will flash and then become solid, indicating a successful connection. The extender will automatically copy your router's Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password, adding '_EXT' or similar to the SSID.

1. Accensione: Plug the NEWFAST AC1200 WiFi Extender into an electrical outlet.
2. Connetti all'Extender: On your computer or mobile device, connect to the extender's default Wi-Fi network (e.g., "NEWFAST_EXT"). No password is required initially.
3. Accesso Web Interfaccia: Aprire un web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox) and enter the default IP address (usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) or the domain name provided in the quick start guide (e.g., re.newfast.com).
4. Login: Inserisci il nome utente e la password predefiniti (solitamente "admin" per entrambi).
5. Seguire le istruzioni sullo schermo: The setup wizard will guide you through selecting your desired operating mode and configuring network settings.

• Modalità ripetitore: Extends the coverage of an existing wireless network. This is ideal for eliminating Wi-Fi dead zones in your home or office.
• Modalità Ponte: (Often integrated with Repeater or AP functionality) Allows the extender to connect to a wireless network and provide a wired connection to a device that does not have Wi-Fi capabilities.
• Modalità AP (punto di accesso): Converts a wired internet connection into a wireless hotspot. This is useful in locations like hotels or offices where only wired internet is available.
• Modalità router: Functions as a standard wireless router, creating a new private network from a modem connection.
• Modalità cliente: Connects a wired-only device (e.g., smart TV, game console, desktop PC) to an existing wireless network. The extender acts as a wireless adapter for the wired device.

È possibile passare da una modalità all'altra tramite web interface setup, adapting the extender to your specific networking needs.
