TROUBLESHOOTING
1. How do I access my range extender?
To access the web-based setup page of your range extender, click here.
2. I have changed the wireless settings of my existing wireless router, and now my Linksys RE7350 doesn't work. Why does this no longer work?
Your Linksys RE7350 does not work because its wireless settings are no longer in sync with the router. Make sure the wireless settings of the Linksys RE7350 in Wireless Range Extender mode are similar to the settings of your router to fix the issue. To know more, click here.
3. I have MAC filtering in my network. Where can I locate the MAC address of my Linksys RE7350 to add it to my MAC filtering list?
Access your range extender’s web-based setup page then go to Status > WLAN Statistics. Use the MAC address labeled as Seen by Upstream AP when your device is on Wireless Range Extender mode.
4. Can I set up the extender using WPS to connect to my upstream router?
Yes. Setting up the extender using Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS) is the quickest way to set it up if the router supports WPS pairing. You will have to repeat the WPS process twice to connect each radio band separately since the WPS pairing sets up one band at a time. For instructions, click here.
5. How do I connect the Linksys RE7350 to the upstream router that is using MAC filtering?
If the upstream router is using MAC filtering restriction, make sure to add the extender’s MAC address of both radios from the WLAN Statistics page in the Seen by Upstream AP when in Wireless Range Extender mode.
6. Why can’t I connect my range extender with WPS?
There are several reasons that WPS could fail:
- Your router and range extender are too far apart
- The 2-minute connection window expired
- The WPS button on either range extender or router did not depress all the way
- WPS is disabled on the router
- MAC filtering is enabled on your upstream router
