PRODUCT SETUP

SETUP

SELECT YOUR METHOD

There are three methods available for setting up the DAP-1620 - using WI-FI Protected

Setup (WPS) (recommended), the QRS Mobile App, or a web browser.

SETTING UP THE DAP-1620 USING WI-FI PROTECTED SETUP (WPS)

NOTE: To connect to a wireless router or AP and extend the Wi-Fi network in your home, please make sure the source router or AP features a WPS Button.

Plug the DAP-1620 into a wall outlet and wait until the

Status/WPS LED is blinking amber. Push the WPS button on the source wireless router or AP, and then push the WPS button on the DAP-1620. The Status/

WPS LED will start to flash green.

Please allow up to two minutes for the process to finish.

The Status/WPS LED will turn solid green when the

DAP-1620 has connected successfully to the source wireless router or AP.

If the Signal Indicator LED has a single amber bar after the connection process has finished, the DAP-1620 has established a poor quality connection. To improve the connection quality, the DAP-1620 should be relocated to a wall outlet closer to the source wireless router or AP.

The more lit bars on the Signal Indicator LED, the better the wireless signal.

The DAP-1620 is now ready to share the extended

Wi-Fi network with your PCs and mobile devices.

Connect to the extension network created by the

DAP-1620 using the following network name (SSID):

• 2.4 GHz: (Your router’s SSID)-EXT

• 5 GHz: (Your router’s SSID)-EXT5G

5 GHz is recommended for the fastest wireless speeds.

Please use your router's usual password.

After WPS, the password of “(Your router’s SSID)-EXT” will be the same as the router it is extending.

PRODUCT SETUP

SETUP

SET UP DAP-1620 WITH QRS MOBILE APP

The DAP-1620 can be configured using your smartphone. Search for "D-Link QRS

Mobile" on the Apple App Store or Google Play, and download the app. Next, connect your smartphone to the DAP-1620 using the SSID and Password information provided on the Wi-Fi Configuration Card and follow the helpful in-app prompts, or refer to the product manual for more information.

SET UP DAP-1620 WITH A WEB BROWSER

The DAP-1620 can also be configured using a web browser. Once you have plugged the DAP-1620 into a wall outlet within wireless range of your router or connected to your existing wired network, open the wireless utility on your computer, select the name (SSID) of the DAP-1620 network, and enter the password (both of these are found on your Wi-Fi Configuration Card).

Next, open a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome) and enter http://dlinkap.local./ By default, the username is Admin, and the password field should be left blank. Please refer to the product manual for further information on configuring the DAP-1620 using a web browser.

TROUBLESHOOTING

SETUP AND CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS

1. HOW DO I RESET MY DAP-1620 AC1200 WIRELESS DUAL BAND EXTENDER TO

FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS?

- Ensure the product is powered on.

- Using a paperclip, press and hold the reset button on the bottom of the device for 5 seconds.

Note: Resetting the product to the factory default will erase the current configuration

settings. The default Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password are printed on

the DAP-1620's Wi-Fi Configuration Card.

2. HOW DO I CONNECT A PC OR OTHER DEVICE TO THE DAP-1620 IF I HAVE FORGOTTEN

MY WI-FI NETWORK NAME (SSID) OR WI-FI PASSWORD?

- If you haven't changed the extended Wi-Fi network's settings, you can use the network name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password on the Wi-Fi Configuration Card.

- If you did change the network name (SSID) or Wi-Fi password and you did not record this information on the Wi-Fi Configuration Card or somewhere else, you must reset the device as described in Question 1 above.

- It is recommended that you make a record of this information so that you can easily connect additional wireless devices in the future. You can use the included Wi-Fi

Configuration Card to record this important information for future use.
