If you recently purchased a JOOWIN Wi-Fi extender and are not sure how to set it up, continue reading this article. In this post, I'll walk you through the process of setting up this gadget in minutes.
Let's get the party started!
How to configure a JOOWIN Wi-Fi extender?
The following are the procedures to follow to configure the JOOWIN Wi-Fi extender:
1. Choose repeater mode
The first step in setting up the JOOWIN Wi-Fi extender is to select the "Repeater Mode", which can be found on the side of the device by pressing the "Repeater Mode" button. Check the mode switch on the side of the device and make sure it is set to the "Repeater" position before continuing.
2. Turn on the extender
After selecting the appropriate mode, plug the gadget into a working wall outlet and turn it on. Locate the power button on the side of the gadget and hold it for a few seconds to turn it on. Wait for all the gadget's lights to turn on at the same time.
3. Connect to the extender network
As soon as the lights turn on, wait for about 60 seconds, then connect to "JOOWIN-XXX-2G" or "JOOWIN-XXX-5G", depending on the option displayed in the phone's Wi-Fi menu.
4. Open the management page and set the password
On your smartphone or PC, open a web browser and type the address "192.168.10.1" in the address box (ideally Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox). Then click "Set Password" and enter the default password, which is "admin".
5. Scan and select your Wi-Fi
The extender will search for and connect to all available Wi-Fi networks. After that, choose the Wi-Fi network you want to expand, enter the password and click "Save Settings".
6. The installation process is complete
The device will automatically restart. Connect the "XXX-2G" or "XXX-5G" Wi-Fi, which is your new Wi-Fi extender, to the network you just created. The password is the same one you used to connect to Wi-Fi.
Take note of the buttons that say "combine Wi-Fi" and "sync your device" when you get to the last stage of setup. If you enable "Combine Wi-Fi", you will be prompted to reconnect the "XXX-2G&5G" Wi-Fi (your new Wi-Fi extender) once the device restarts automatically after being turned on.
However, if you select the "Sync your device" option, the extended Wi-Fi name will be the same as your personal Wi-Fi name, which eliminates the need to log into extended Wi-Fi again after the setup process is complete . Using the "combine Wi-Fi" option, on the other hand, ensures that you are using a high quality bandwidth for better performance.
What is the best way to reset my JOOWIN Wi-Fi Extender?
Here's how to reset your JOOWIN Wi-Fi extender:
- Locate the WPS/Reset button on the back of the extender (usually located on the bottom of the device).
- Press and hold the reset button for about 10 seconds.
- The lights will go out and then back on again, indicating that the reset was completed successfully.
Note: Note that after completing a factory reset, you will need to set up your device again.
Can my JOOWIN Wi-Fi Extender connect to any router?
Yes, most models of JOOWIN Wi-Fi extenders are compatible with most existing routers, so you don't need to modify your router.
What should I do if my JOOWIN Wi-Fi always disconnects?
You may need to try resetting the extension first. If that doesn't work, you could try updating the firmware. To do this, follow these steps:
- Go to www.joo-win.com.
- Select the "Download" option from the drop-down menu.
- Enter the search term "JW-WR754AC" and download the firmware. Enter the IP address "192.168.10.1" to upload the firmware.
- Then select "System Tools", followed by "Update Firmware".
- Now upload the file you just downloaded by clicking the "Upload" button.
Where is the best location for my Wi-Fi Extender?
Ideally, the extender should be halfway between the router and the weak signal region in question. Make sure the location you've chosen is within network range of your existing Wi-Fi router before proceeding.
