Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q3. What should I do if I forget the router’s web management

password?

• Refer to FAQ > Q2 to reset the router, and then use the default admin (all

lowercase) for both username and password to log in.

Q4. What should I do if I forget my Wi-Fi password?

• If you have not changed the default wireless password, it can be found on

the label of the router.

• If you have changed the default wilreless password, please log in to the

router’s web management and go to to retrieve Wireless 2.4GHz (or

Wireless 5GHz) > Wireless Security to retrieve or reset your password.

Q5. What should I do if my wireless signal is unstable or too weak?

It may be caused by too much interference.

• Set your wireless channel to a dierent one.

• Choose a location with less obstacles that may block the signal between

the travel router and the host AP. An open corridor or a spacious location is

ideal.

• Move the router to a new location away from Bluetooth devices and other

household electronics, such as cordless phones, microwaves, and baby

monitors, to minimize signal interference.

• When in Range Extender mode, the ideal location to place the router is

halfway between your host AP and the Wi-Fi dead zone. If that is not

possible, place the router closer to your host AP to ensure stable

performance.

Q1. What should I do if there is no internet access?

• If you are using a cable modem, unplug the Ethernet cable and reboot the

modem. Wait until its Online LED is on and stable, and then reconnect the

cable to the modem.

and requires that you authenticate for the service or purchase the

internet access.
