    Linksys Velop WHW0303B Setup Guide

    We will provide you with two methods: one is app-based and another web browser-based, so you can choose the one as per your own choice and convenience.

    Web Browser-Based Setup

    Prepare

    Start by unboxing the hardware and collecting all the components. Begin the setup by strategically placing the nodes in the areas where you need coverage. Always make sure to place them away from electronic devices and various physical obstacles as it can mess up with the network. Also, place each node at an equal distance so that they can easily communicate with each other to form a seamless network.

    Connect

    Connect one end of the primary velop node to the modem with the help of an Ethernet cable. The second end will be plugged into an electrical outlet with the help of the provided power adapter. Once the connection is built switch on the entire setup. Wait for a few seconds to boot it up and LED light on the primary node to stabilize.

    Connect To The Wi-Fi Network

    Now take up any device of your preference, go to its Wi-Fi settings, and in the list of available networks search for the network named “Linksys” or something similar to it. Upon finding it click on “Connect”.

    Note: Sometimes users aren’t able to find the network name, so in that case consider restarting your device as it will solve the issue promptly and also make sure that the device you are using doesn’t have any pending updates.

    Access The Web Interface

    On the same device open Google Chrome or you can pursue any other browser of your choice. In its address bar fill up the default web address which is http://extender.linksys.com” or “http://192.168.1.1” and press Enter. It will take you to the setup page.

    Quick Tip: Make Sure the web browser you chose is compatible with Linksys and all the browser caches and cookies are also cleared.

    Start The Setup Wizard

    On your screen, you will be prompted to enter the default username and password. You can easily find them either in the user manual that came along or on the primary velop node. Enter the details and immediately start following all the on-screen instructions. Here you can also customize various settings of the network like changing default login details, setting up parental controls, creating a guest network, enabling automatic updates and much more. Once done do not forget to Save and Apply all the changes.

    Connect Your Devices

    As you will complete the setup process the device will reboot itself to apply all the changes. Once done you can now connect your devices to the newly created setup by using the SSID and password you configured. Verify that your network is performing well and that all nodes are providing adequate coverage.

    App Based Setup

    For those who want a super quick and hassle-free Linksys Velop WHW0303B Setup process then the Linksys app is your savior.

    Gather All The Equipment

    Start by collecting all the equipment that came with the setup. Keep the primary node as well as additional nodes, power adapter and the user manual handy for smooth setup.

    Download The Linksys App

    Now, the next step is to download the Linksys app. iOS users can download the app from the app store, and Android users can download it from the Google Play Store. Once the app is installed on your device, open the app and follow the on-screen instructions to create a Linksys account. In case you already have an account then simply log in.

    Connect The First Node

    The next step is to plug in the parent node to an electrical outlet and connect it to your modem. You can do so by using the provided Ethernet cable.

    Follow The App Instructions

    Now, open the Linksys app and just start following all the on-screen instructions to set up the first node. This includes creating a network name and password. Make sure to curate a password that is a mix of numbers, letters, and special characters. As this will ensure the security of your network.

    Expand Your Mesh Network

    This step is optional but recommended if you want to cover the maximum area and need wide coverage. So if you have additional nodes then place them strategically throughout your home or office to extend coverage. For adding additional nodes just repeat the connection process as you did for the parent node.

    Configure Various Settings

    For better performance access all the settings. Customize various settings such as guest access, parental controls, and device prioritization as per your needs and preferences. Once all the settings are done do not forget to save and apply the changes.

    Test The Network

    After setup, connect your devices to the new Wi-Fi network using the Username and password you set up. Test the connection throughout your home to ensure complete coverage.
