App Users

1. Download the AmpliFi app for iPhone or Android.
2. Connect to the default AmpliFi wireless network (SSID) or via Bluetooth. The app guides you through connecting to your Wi-Fi network and setting up your AmpliFi system.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions in the app to configure your AmpliFi Router. This includes naming your wireless network and creating a password.

Visual description: The process involves downloading the app from the App Store or Google Play, then using the phone's Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings to connect to the AmpliFi device, followed by the app interface showing the setup wizard.

Non-App Users

1. Connect the Ethernet cable from your modem to the WAN port on the AmpliFi Router.
2. Connect the power adapter to the power port on the AmpliFi Router and plug it into a power outlet.
3. Connect the MeshPoint to power.
4. Connect the MeshPoint to the Router using an Ethernet cable for initial setup if needed, or rely on wireless pairing.
5. Power on the Router and MeshPoint. The LEDs will indicate their status.
6. Connect a computer or tablet to the default AmpliFi Wi-Fi network (SSID) named "AmpliFi-Setup" or similar.
7. Open a web browser and navigate to the setup page (e.g., 192.168.1.1 or amplifi.local).
8. Follow the on-screen instructions to name your wireless network and create a password.

Visual description: This involves connecting cables between the modem, router, and power sources. Then, connecting a computer to the router's default Wi-Fi network and accessing a setup interface via a web browser.

System

The System dashboard offers an overview of your AmpliFi Wi-Fi system, including network status, number of connected clients, and active download/upload speeds. You can tap on devices to display or edit their settings.

Performance

The Performance screen allows you to run speed tests to check download speed, upload speed, and connection ping time. A history of recent tests is also displayed.

Guest

This feature enables guest access. You can set a time limit for guest access and manage the number of guests. Guests connect to a dedicated guest network without needing a password.

Family

Family Profiles let you create profiles for family members or groups, assign devices, schedule quiet times, and pause internet access for specific profiles.

Diagnose

The Diagnose option performs checks on your WAN link, IP settings, internet connection, and MeshPoint status.

FCC

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is 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 undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits 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 in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with 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 can be determined 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 receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The AmpliFi Router and MeshPoint have been approved by FCC under FCC ID: SWX-AFAR (for Router); FCC ID: SWX-AFAP (for MeshPoint).
