II. Installation 1. Plug the access point into a power socket. 2. Connect the access point to your existing router via Ethernet cable and ensure your router is turned on. 3. Switch the access point on using the on/off switch on the top of the device. The green power LED should display on. The access point may take a couple of minutes to boot up, and is ready when the orange status LED displays on.
4. Use a Wi-Fi device (e.g. computer, tablet, smartphone) to search for a Wi-Fi network with the SSID “EdimaxAP**” and connect to it. The last two characters of the SSID (**) will be unique numbers according to your access point e.g. EdimaxAP20. Your unique SSID is displayed on the product label along with the included access key card. 5. Enter the password to connect to the SSID.
You can change the basic settings of the access point, such as the SSID & password, and guest SSID & password, using iQ Setup (see the user manual for guidance). For more advanced configurations, you can use the browser based configuration interface (also refer to the user manual).
III. Reset If you experience problems with your access point, you can reset the device back to its factory settings. This resets all settings back to default. 1. Press and hold the WPS/Reset button on the front of the access point for at least 10 seconds. Release the button when the orange status LED is flashing. 2. Wait for the access point to restart. The access point is ready for setup when the orange status LED displays on.

Check that your existing router is switched on and working properly.
