The interface used to setup and control a WiFiRanger router. Each WiFiRanger has its own Control
Panel that is embedded within the router and accessed in a web browser of a
connected
device.
Computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices with web browsers can be used to setup and
control a WiFiRanger.
By default, advanced features are hidden on the Control Panel. Turn Hide Advanced Features to Off
on the Setup tab to view the full Control Panel. Most users only need the simple mode.

Upon accessing the Control Panel, it is highly recommended to create a bookmark using the Make
Bookmark link located at the bottom left of the Control Panel. This makes accessing the WiFiRanger
easy in the future while alleviating the need to remember the direct IP address.

The Scan button performs a one-time refresh of the wireless signals in range. When moving loca-
tions, for instance, the list of WiFi Networks may look like you are still at the old location, but clicking
the Scan button will list what is currently available. Keep in mind that you must first select the desired
model to the left of the Scan button prior to scanning or connecting.
The Connect button simply attempts to connect to the selected WiFi Network. If the signal is secured,
you may be prompted to enter the password of the WiFi Network. The WiFi status will update with the
steps the WiFiRanger is taking during the connection attempt.
