Opsætning og installation

The WONLINK Outdoor WiFi Extender supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified installation. The main unit is weatherproof, but the PoE adapter must be installed indoors.

PoE-forbindelse

The included 24V PoE adapter provides both power and data connectivity to the extender unit via a single Ethernet cable. This allows for flexible placement of the extender up to 100 meters (approximately 328 feet) from the power source.

1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable (up to 100m) to the PoE port on the 24V PoE Adapter.
2. Connect the other end of this Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the Outdoor WiFi Extender unit.
3. Connect your router or network switch to the LAN port on the 24V PoE Adapter using another Ethernet cable.
4. Plug the 24V PoE Adapter into a standard indoor power outlet.

Montering af forlængeren

The extender can be mounted on a wall or pole using the provided stainless ties and screws. Ensure the mounting location provides optimal signal coverage and is within the 100m PoE cable limit.

Initial Configuration (Recommended AP Mode for Outdoor Use)

For optimal performance in large outdoor areas, the wired AP (Access Point) mode is strongly advised. This involves connecting the extender directly to your router via an Ethernet cable through the PoE adapter.

1. Connect the extender to your computer using an Ethernet cable (via the PoE adapter) for initial setup.
2. Åbn a web browser and navigate to the default IP address provided in the Quick Installation Guide (typically 192.168.1.1 or similar).
3. Log ind med standardoplysningerne (normalt admin/admin).
4. Follow the on-screen wizard to configure the device. Select AP-tilstand til udendørs brug.
5. Set your desired WiFi network name (SSID) and password.
6. Save settings and restart the device if prompted.

Driftstilstande

The WONLINK Outdoor WiFi Extender supports four primary operating modes to adapt to various network requirements:

• AP-tilstand (adgangspunkt): Converts a wired network connection into a wireless one. Ideal for creating a new WiFi hotspot or extending a wired network wirelessly. This is the recommended mode for large outdoor deployments.
• Repeater-tilstand: Extends the coverage of an existing wireless network by receiving the WiFi signal and re-transmitting it. Best used when the extender is placed within 3-5 meters of the main router for optimal signal reception.
• Routertilstand: Functions as a primary router, connecting to a modem and providing both wired and wireless internet access to multiple devices.
• Brotilstand: Connects two separate wired networks wirelessly, acting as a wireless bridge between them.

Opretholdelse

The WONLINK Outdoor WiFi Extender is designed for durability and minimal maintenance due to its IP66 weatherproof enclosure.

• Vejrbestandighed: The IP66 rating ensures protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets. It is built to withstand rain, snow, wind, and extreme temperatures (-10°C to 60°C).
• Rensning: Tør jævnligt enhedens yderside af med en blød, tør klud.amp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Firmwareopdateringer: Check the WONLINK official webbesøg webstedet regelmæssigt for firmwareopdateringer. Ved at holde firmwaren opdateret sikres optimal ydeevne, sikkerhed og adgang til nye funktioner.
• Kabelinspektion: Regularly inspect the Ethernet cable connecting the extender to the PoE adapter for any signs of wear, damage, or degradation, especially if exposed to direct sunlight or physical stress.

Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your WONLINK Outdoor WiFi Extender, try the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Power/Lights Off:
  • Ensure the PoE adapter is securely plugged into a working power outlet.
  • Check the Ethernet cable connection between the PoE adapter and the extender unit.
  • Verify the PoE adapter is functioning correctly.
• Ingen internetadgang:
  • In AP/Router mode, ensure the LAN port of the PoE adapter is connected to your main router/modem.
  • Check if your main router/modem has internet access.
  • If in Repeater mode, ensure the extender is receiving a strong signal from your main router. Try repositioning the extender closer to the router.
  • Genstart både extenderen og din primære router.
• Weak Signal/Slow Speed:
  • Ensure the extender is placed in an optimal location, away from obstructions and sources of interference (e.g., thick walls, large metal objects, microwaves).
  • For Repeater mode, ensure the extender is not too far from the main router.
  • Se efter firmwareopdateringer.
  • Verify that the antennas are securely attached and oriented correctly.
• Kan ikke få adgang Web Ledelsesside:
  • Ensure your computer is connected to the extender (either directly via Ethernet or its WiFi network).
  • Verify you are using the correct IP address (refer to the Quick Installation Guide).
  • Prøv at rydde din browsers cache eller brug en anden browser.
  • Deaktiver midlertidigt enhver firewall eller antivirussoftware på din computer.
• Gendan fabriksindstillinger: If issues persist, you may need to perform a factory reset. Locate the reset button (usually a small pinhole) on the device. With the device powered on, press and hold the reset button for 5-10 seconds until the lights flash, then release. The device will revert to its default factory settings.
