Set Up Your ALLY
Follow the steps in the app to get your ALLY up and
running. Once ALLY is on, go to your phone’s Wi-Fi
settings and connect to Amped_ALLY_XXXX. This will
allow the app to verify and prepare ALLY for the next
step. Return to the ALLY app after you’ve connected.
At the end of the setup, you will be asked to create a
name and password for your new Wi-Fi networks.
Tip: The 5GHz network is faster than the 2.4GHz
network, but a 2.4GHz will have more range.

During the setup process, my new Wi-Fi settings are not successfully applied.
During the setup process your mobile device will disconnect from the ALLY Wi-Fi network as it applies

the new Wi-Fi settings to the ALLY Router. At this time, your mobile device may have joined another
Wi-Fi network that does not have Internet access. Please check that your mobile device is connected

I wish to configure advanced settings on the Router, such as changing Wi-Fi
channels, configuring port forwarding, USB storage, etc.
To access the advanced settings menu, connect to the ALLY’s Wi-Fi network. Open a web browser
a)
and go to: http://setup.ampedwireless.com. You will be prompted for a password which can be found
on the ALLY app by going to Settings (icon on the top right corner of the status page) and then going
to Advanced settings. Some features on the Web Menu will be disabled when the Router is in use with
the ALLY app.
I wish to use the ALLY Router without the app. How do I do this?
If you have never set the ALLY Router up using the ALLY app follow these steps: Power on the ALLY Router
a)
and connect to the ALLY’s Wi-Fi network. Open a web browser and go to: http://setup.ampedwireless.com
to access the web menu and web based setup wizard. Follow the steps to configure your ALLY Router.
b)
If you have previously configured the ALLY Router using the ALLY app and you wish to no longer use the
ALLY app with the Router follow these steps. While the ALLY Router is powered on, reset the ALLY Router
by pressing the Reset button on the bottom of the Router for 10 seconds. The status light should blink
rapidly when the Router has been reset. Once this is done, follow the steps in (a) to configure the Router
using the Web Menu.
I see an error "No Connection to ALLY" when using the ALLY app.
The ALLY Router and the ALLY app can no longer communicate. Check that the ALLY Router is
a)
connected to the modem correctly. Reboot your modem or the ALLY Router if necessary.
How can I remove my ALLY Router from my ALLY app account?
Go to the ALLY app and tap on the settings icon on the top right corner of the home screen. From the
Wired PortsPower Port
a)
settings screen tap "Erase all data & disconnect ALLY". This will remove your ALLY Router and allow
you to set the ALLY Router to a new account or an existing account.
If you are experiencing problems with your ALLY
setup, please contact our U.S.-based Elite Support.
