Access Point Mode

Make sure the Extend is plugged into a wall outlet and has power (the blue Power LED should be solid blue.)
Connect the included Ethernet cable between one of the two Ethernet jacks on the Extend and your existing router or switch (the Network LED will be flashing green.)

In a few seconds, the Network LED will stop flashing and turn solid green indicating that the Extend is connected to your router.
HEOS Extend is now operating in Access Point mode. You can connect to the HEOS Extend by selecting the network name (SSID) that starts with “HEOS_” and entering the password printed on the bottom of the HEOS Extend.

NOTE

The default network name and password are unique for every HEOS Extend. This information is printed on the bottom of your HEOS Extend.

Access Point mode will automatically be configured with both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks enabled and set to the factory default settings. If you wish to change any of the default settings, please see the Advanced Settings section below.

Once your HEOS Extend has been configured in Extender Mode, the default network name is erased. If you decide to reconfigure your HEOS Extend in Access Point Mode, the network name (SSID) will be set to the same name as the network it was previously set to extend. Please see the Advanced Settings section for instructions about how to change the network name using the Web UI.
