Quick Start Guide
Velop*© Micro 7 Mesh System
Velop Micro 7 Mesh System
Step 1
Disconnect your old router from your modem or gateway.
Restart your modem or gateway by unplugging it.
Wait 3 minutes and plug it back in.
Select the Node labelled ‘Router’ on the front side.
Connect the Router to the modem.
Use the provided Ethernet cable to connect the modem to the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port on the Router.
Plug the Router into a power outlet.
Give it a minute to start up. The Router light will blink blue as it is starting up, and turn solid white once online.
Seeing a red light on the Router?
This means no internet is detected.
- Confirm all cables are connected and your old router is disconnected.
- Your ISP may reqire resetting your modem. Unplug your modem, wait 3 minutes, and plug your modem back in.
- If the red light is blinking, make sure you have connected the Node labelled Router to your modem.

Step 2
Plug the Child Nodes into power outlets. Child Nodes have no special labels. Keep the Router and Child Nodes 1-2 rooms apart and out in the open to receive good WiFi signals.
The Child Node lights will go from blue to solid white once they connect to the internet.
seeing a blinking red light?
The Router has internet, but the Child Node i unable to find its signal.
The Child Node may be too far away, or the signal is obstructed.
Move the Child Node closer to the Router and keep it out in the open.
Seeing a red light?
No internet is detected from the Router.
Go back to step 1and establish an internet connection to the Router.
Step 3
Scan the QR code to connect to your WiFi. That’s it!
Start using the internet.
Save this guide for future reference. Your default WiFi Name and Password are also printed on the bottom of your Router.
You can remove the ‘Router’ label after you have completed setup.

Wireless Regulatory Information
FCC Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation s subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause un-
desired operation.
This product has been tested and complies
with the specifications for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference i a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used according to the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which is found by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
- Increase the separation between the equipment and devices
- Connect the equipment to an outlet other than the receiver’s
- Consulta dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
2.4 GHz operation of this product in the USA is firmware-limited to channels 1 through 11. Selection of other channels is not possible.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 35 cm between the radiator and your body. This device and it’s antennas(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna o transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi transmitter product procedures.
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Statement
CAN ICES (B) / NMB (B)
This device complies with ISED’s license-exempt RSS standards. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated for 2.4 GHz. Selection of other channels is not possible.
The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of absence of information to transmit, or operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit transmission of control or signaling information or the use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 35 cm between the radiator & your body.
This device and its antennas(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with ISED multi-transmitter product procedures.
Restrictions in the 5 GHz Band
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 3.53 dBi and 3.7 dBi at 24 GHz and 5 GHz respectively. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of ISED. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
The maximum antenna gain (Please see the table below) permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 54705725 MHz) to comply with the EIRP limit and the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz shall be such that the equipment still complies with the EIRP limits specified for point-to-point and non-point-to-point operation as appropriate because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in 5250-5350 MHz and 5650- 5850 MHz, these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license exempt LAN devices. The worst-case tilt angle(s) necessary to remain compliant with the e.i.r.p. elevation mask requirement set forth in Section 6.2.2(3) shall be clearly indicated.
| No. | Antenna Type | For 2.4 GHz Gain (dBi) | For 5 GHz Gain (dBi) | Antenna Connector |
| 1 | PCB Antenna | 2.19 | 3.7 | U. FL |
| 2 | PCB Antenna | 1.56 | 3.41 | U. FL |
| 3 | Embedded Antenna | 3.53 | N/A |
Additional requirements for the band 5600-5650 MHz
Until further notice, devices subject to this Section shall not be capable of transmitting in the band 5600-5650 MHz, so that Environment Canada weather radars operating in this band are protected.
