Chapter II: Basic Configuration and Setup
2-1 Build your network (Initial hardware setup)
Please follow these instructions to build the network connection between the Hi-Gain™ Wireless-300N Sm art Repeater Pro and your computers and other network devices:
1. Connect the included antennas to your Smart Repeater Pro.
2. Connect the power adapter to the Smart Repeater Pro
3. Connect all ‘wired’ users to the HAW2R1 via the Wired Local Area Network (LAN)
ports in grey. For wireless users, scan for the SSID of the Smart Repeater Pro (Smart_Repeater_Pro) and connect. You must be within range of the Smart Repeater Pro before connecting.
4. Check to see the activity of the LEDs on the front panel. The PWR LED should be on.
The LAN LEDs should be on if the computer / network device connected to the respective port of the Smart Repeater Pro is powered on and properly connected. If PWR LED is not on, or any LED you expected is not on, please recheck the power connection, or jump to “5-2 Tr oubleshooting” for possible reasons and solutions.
Traditional Router Setup (Optional):
