How To Setup Linksys

It’s crucial to comprehend how the hardware functions before you start installing your Linksys Velop mesh network system in your home.

 

In order to give wireless coverage across your entire home, a mesh network consists of many WiFi broadcast stations placed throughout it, all of whose signals overlap with one another. This is very different from previous WiFi, which often only had a single wireless router that was either connected to or incorporated into your Internet provider’s modem. Depending on how big your house is, having service everywhere may be close to impossible as that one router can only transmit WiFi from where it is in your house.

  • First, use an Ethernet wire to join your Linksys router to the primary DSL modem. Additionally, join your MODEM to the primary DSL line.
  • The next step is to attach the devices’ power wires and turn them on. Allow the equipment to start up.
  • The front panel’s power LED will then turn on, and the internet LED will turn solid green. This is a sign that you may now go on to the next step in the procedure.
  • Then navigate to your computer’s wireless networks area and look for the device SSID in the list of accessible networks. When you do, pick the “Connect” button by clicking on it.
  • Enter the default web address in the address bar of the web browser after the computer has been linked to the local device network and hit the Enter key. To reach the Linksys velop login page, use either the standard IP address 192.168.1.1 or the standard web URL https://myrouter.local.
  • Check for any irregularities in the ethernet wires you are utilising if you are unable to access the same. Additionally, confirm that you are connected to the correct network.
