The Wireless MAXg Detection Utility is not locating the Range Extender to which I want to connect.

Possible Solution:

Verify that all the physical connections of the Range Extender are securely connected.

Possible Solution:

Click Detect to rescan the network.

Possible Solution:

If the Range Extender to which you want to connect is not located after you click Detect, perform the following steps:

  1. The networking device that the Range Extender is connected to probably has some form of Web User Interface where you can view a client list. Perform the neccesary steps to view this client list in your networking device. Refer to your networking device's documentation to determine how to view this information.
  2. Locate the Range Extender in the client list by verifying the LAN MAC address that is on the bottom label of the Range Extender and what appears in the client list. Write down the IP address of the Range Extender for future reference.
  3. Open a Web browser, type in the IP address of the Range Extender, and then press Enter. This will open the Web User Interface of the Range Extender. Verify that all the connection information is correct for the network to which the Range Extender is connected.
