This article will guide you in adding more Linksys MR20WH child nodes to expand your WiFi network.

Before you begin:

• You will need a computer.
• The parent router must be online and fully configured. Follow these instructions to set up the parent router.
• Parent router - The Linksys router that will connect to your modem.
• Child node - The additional Linksys Velop Mesh node that will extend your WiFi network.

1. Connect a computer to the WiFi name of your Linksys network.

2. Place the child node within 10 feet of the parent router and turn it ON. During setup, it's best to keep the child node close to the parent; you can relocate it afterward. If you're powering multiple nodes, start by positioning them near the parent router and then arrange them as needed later.

3. Make sure the new child node is ready for setup.
