Wavlink AC1200 Setup

With the Wavlink AC1200 setup, you can enjoy a better-speed internet connection that is free of dead zones. But, before that, you have to complete the Wavlink AC1200 setup. First, you need some basic preparations.

A Cable For Ethernet

You should have a new Ethernet cable before starting the Wavlink AC1200 setup process. That’s because it will allow you to connect the extender to the router. A wired connection is more reliable than a wireless one.

Computer or Laptop

You will need a PC or laptop to access the default repeater URL or login page. It is possible for either device to work and deliver the desired results. Please ensure that the devices are running the latest operating system.

An Internet Browser

Wavlink wifi extender setup requires the use of an internet browser. It is your choice whether to use Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or any other web browser. To ensure that the chosen web browser is up-to-date, you must ensure that it has the latest version. It should also be compatible with the computer or laptop used for installation.

Details of Your Login

Wifi.wavlink.com login details are also important when setting up the Wavlink AC1200. You need them to log into your range extender. As a result, ensure that you have access to the default login credentials for the extender.

Power Socket

Wavlink setup should begin with a stable and consistent electricity supply. The device may suffer damage if you don’t take care of it. If you choose a wall socket, make sure there are no signs of short-circuiting.

Plug in your Wavlink AC1200 router to an electrical outlet. The LED light on the side of the device will turn solid green, indicating that it is online and ready for use. Note that LED indicates different things. For example:

• Check the LED on your range extender to see if it is on.
• LED will be off if the range extender is not plugged in.
• The LED will flash if the range extender is connected to the internet

If the LED is off, plug out the extender. Wait 30 seconds and then plug it back. Now check if it’s on. If it’s not lit up, send us a message.

First, connect the router to your computer using an Ethernet cable.

• In your web browser, enter 192.168.0.254 into the address bar.
• Press Enter or Return on your keyboard.
• Wait for the configuration page for the extender.
• There is also a default IP address you can use if you don’t know what IP address has been assigned.
• Go to the setup page by clicking Advanced Settings > Wireless Security.
• You’ll see a list of wireless networks that are available near you.
• Select the one with the name “Wavlink”.
• Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions for the setup.

Connect the router to the extender using an Ethernet cable, then plug it in. Then, press the WPS button on the extender and wait a few seconds until it begins flashing. Now, press the WPS button on the router. Finally, on your computer, open up a web browser and follow the remaining steps that appear on the screen.

You can also set up your wireless extender using the Wavlink mobile application. The execution of the below steps will help you in this setup process.

Download the Wavlink WiFi App

To complete the setup process, you will need to download the Wavlink wifi app from the Apple App Store or Google Play and install it on your smartphone device. You can then launch the app and follow on-screen instructions to complete the setup of your range extender.

Connect Your Smartphone to the Default WiFi Network

Use your smartphone to connect to the default temporary WiFi network called Wavlink_AC. This network appears automatically after plugging in your range extender for about 30 seconds. It will disappear if you wait too long before connecting to it, so be sure to do it within that time frame.

Enter SSID And Password

If you are unsure of your SSID and password, they can be found directly on the bottom of your wifi router. The SSID (Service Set Identifier) is the name of your network, while the password is the key to your network. Both are case-sensitive and will be listed in any user guide or manual.

Launch the Wavlink App

Launch the Wavlink app that you downloaded and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup of your range extender. You should now be able to connect your devices to the extender’s network.
