Preparing to Use the WX3100

1. Attach the bracket to the bottom of the WX3100 as shown.

2. Consider where you want to place the WX3100 to extend your wireless network. The extender should be placed close to, but not in, a Wi-Fi blackspot. It needs to connect to the router to create the mesh network and maximize coverage.

There are two ways to set up your extender.

Setting Up Your Extender - Option 1: Wired Connection

1. Connect the WX3100's LAN port to the original MPro Mesh Router's LAN port using the included Ethernet cable. Plug in the power adapter and wait until the POWER and LINK LEDs are steady green.
