again.

How do I reset the extender?

For a soft reset using My Dashboard or a hard reset,
using the Reset button, see “Resetting the Extender to
Factory Defaults” on page 25.

What is the IP address of the
extender after it is configured?

The IP address of the extender depends on the

IP address of the router or access point to which the
extender is connected.

You may be able to connect to the extender by
accessing http://wdrangeextender or

http://wdrangeextender.local.

To determine the IP address:
1.

Check the client table on the router’s or access
point’s web UI. The web UI varies depending on the
model of the router.

2.

Locate the WDRangeExtender and its IP address on
the table.
