With dual-band WiFi 6 supported, dead zones are meant to be eliminated easily and internet speed gets seamless. Like any extender, however, if you’re not acquainted with the procedure the Wavlink extender setup may be a bit challenging. Based on actual use rather than only what’s in the guide, this tutorial leads you through a neat, easy to follow, Wavlink AX3000 repeater setup.

What to Know Before You Start

Here are a few things worth looking at before delving into the Wavlink Areial AX3000 configuration:

• Verify that the repeater has been plugged into a functional power source.
• Before and while you are doing the Wavlink AX3000 repeater setup, keep it near your primary router.
• Keep your WiFi network name (SSID) and password handy.
• A laptop, tablet, or smartphone

As everything is in order, be ready to proceed!!

Step 1: Power On the Repeater

Unbox your Areial D6X, connect it into an outlet, then watch the LED indicator flicker. It means, the repeater is in ready to connect mode and set-up. Now, press and hold the reset button for around 8-10 seconds if the light does not flash or remains solid. This guarantees you are starting fresh and removes all the old settings, if any.

Step 2: Connect to the Repeater’s Network

Open the WiFi settings on your phone or laptop. Depending on the model, you should find a network name similar to  “WAVLINK-N” or “WAVLINK-AX”—it’ll vary somewhat depending on the model. Connect to that system. Your device won’t have access to internet at this moment and that is absolutely fine.

Once connected, launch a browser under 192.168.10.1 in the address bar. This will take you to the Wavlink login page.

Step 3: Login and Access Wavlink Areial AX3000

Setup Page

You will have to enter the credentials on the Wavlink login page. It is ” admin by default; unless you have altered it prior. Usually the letters are all lowercase, . You will find yourself on the main dashboard upon login.

Depending on your firmware version, choose the “Repeater Mode” or “Extender Mode” option here.

Step 4: Scan and Select Your Main WiFi Network

The repeater will search surrounding networks automatically. Click your primary WiFi network from the list. When prompted, provide your current WiFi password. This is the way the extender connects itself to your router and joins the same network.

You will also be expected to identify the expanded network. To make it simpler to identify them different from each other, either retain the same name as your primary network (for smooth roaming) or add a suffix like “-EXT.” Either method you choose is fine—it’s simply personal inclination.

Step 5: Finalize Wavlink AX3000 repeater Setup and Reboot

Click “Apply,” or “Save,” after you have entered all the information. The repeater will reboot indicating that all the settings have been applied successfully. This might take a minute or two. You are good to go as the light goes solid—usually blue or green, depending on the model.

Now cut off the WAVLINK-AX temporary network and re-connect your device to your primary WiFi, either the original SSID or the new extended one you just configured.

Step 6: Optimize Placement

If you want the Wavlink extender setup and configuration to be a 100% success, the placement of the device counts. Move the repeater midway between the location experiencing poor service and your main router. Check that thick walls, metal, or electrical interference do not hinder the signals.

Try moving the extender a little nearer the router; if the LED on it turns amber or red, try moving it closer to the router.  You are in a nice place if it is green or blue.

Troubleshooting Tips

Here are some brief tests if anything goes wrong during the Wavlink AX3000 repeater configuration:

• Can’t access the Wavlink login page? Try using another browser or device and ensure you are linked to the temporary WiFi network of the repeater.
• Wrong password error? Check your primary WiFi password; it is case-sensitive.
• No internet after Wavlink internet setup? Turn on the primary router and the repeater simultaneously. Then, if necessary, restart the setup procedure from fresh.
• Connection is unstable? Try upgrading the firmware using the Wavlink dashboard or relocating the repeater nearer the router.

Also, remember to document or preserve your repeater settings somewhere, particularly if you’ve generated a different SSID and password for the expanded network.
