Amped wireless setup- Requirements

Before you begin with the Amped wireless SR1000 setup process, make sure you have the details related to the main router’s network SSID and the password. You can get these details by signing in to the router’s settings wizard online. Or, if you have the router app, you can login to check the details.

Furthermore, you’ll need some equipment such as ethernet cables, a computer or wireless device to access the internet on. Finally, make sure you also have the default setting details of your Amped wireless extender. These details can generally be found on the product label of the device. If not, check the user manual that came with the device or the package box.

Beginning with the Amped wireless SR10000 SETUP

The most important part of setting up a wireless range extender is finding an appropriate location for the installation. The location where you install the extender makes a huge difference in terms of how it functions. The optimal setup location should be halfway between the wifi router and the location where you wish to use the internet at. Once you have found the location, you can begin following the steps as mentioned:

Connect your range extender to the power outlet using the power adapter.
Take an ethernet cable and connect the computer to one of the LAN ports on your range extender. You can also connect the two wirelessly later on.
Power on the devices now and allow them to boot up.
Once devices are ready, launch a web browser and then type in the default web address in the address bar. The default web address you can use is https://setup.ampedwireless.com.

If the web login page doesn’t appear, you can also use the IP address https://192.168.1.210. Disconnect your computer from all the wifi networks in your area. Look for the Amped_SR SSID in the available network list on your computer or wireless device. Once visible, select the same and connect to it.

A list of the available wireless networks will become visible on the screen. Select the network you would like to extend and then click on the Next button.

Tip: On the same screen, the signal strength that the extender is able to receive will also be displayed. If you see the signal strength drop below 70%, move the devices closer to each other.

The setup wizard will now ask you to type in the network password in the field. Type in the router network password and then click on the next button.
The Amped SR1000 setup wizard will detect the network connection and copy the network settings over to your range extender.

Once the configuration is over, the setup wizard will guide you to connect your wireless devices to the newly configured network. Once the devices are connected, select the check box to confirm and click on the Next button.
