- The range extender’s Linksys Extender Setup-xxx default SSID should be used to connect a WiFi computer or mobile device. Your range extender’s MAC address may be located on the back label of the device, and the xxx stands for the last three characters of that address.
- Start a browser and type “https://extender.linksys.com” into the address bar. If it doesn’t load, you’ll need to find the IP address of your range extender in the DHCP client table of your router.
