Follow these steps to set up your AT&T Air 4920 Wi-Fi Extender:

4.1 Colocación inicial

For initial setup, place the Wi-Fi Extender near your AT&T gateway (router). Once paired, you can move it to a more central location in your home where Wi-Fi signal is weak.

4.2 Conexión de alimentación

1. Connect the provided power adapter to the DC Power Input (7) on the back of the extender.
2. Conecte el adaptador de corriente a una toma de pared.
3. Ensure the Power On/Off Switch (6) is in the 'On' position. The Power Indicator (3) should light up.

4.3 Pairing with Your AT&T Gateway (Router)

There are two primary methods for pairing:

Method A: Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) - Recommended

1. Mantenga pulsado el WPS Button (4) on the front of the Wi-Fi Extender for 2-3 seconds until the indicator lights start blinking.
2. Dentro de dos minutos, presione el Botón WPS on your AT&T gateway (router). Refer to your gateway's manual for the exact location of its WPS button.
3. Wait for the indicator lights on the extender (1, 2, and 3) to turn solid green, indicating a successful connection. This may take a few minutes as the extender updates its firmware and synchronizes with your gateway.

Method B: Using an Ethernet Cable (If WPS fails or is not preferred)

1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable (not included) to one of the Gigabit Ethernet Ports (5) on the back of the extender.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an available LAN port on your AT&T gateway (router).
3. The extender will automatically detect the connection and begin pairing. Wait for the indicator lights (1, 2, and 3) to turn solid green.
4. Once paired, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable if you wish to use the extender wirelessly.

4.4 Colocación óptima

After successful pairing, unplug the extender and move it to a location roughly halfway between your AT&T gateway and the area where you need improved Wi-Fi coverage. Ensure the extender is placed in an open area, away from large metal objects, concrete walls, or other electronic devices that might cause interference. Plug it back into a power outlet. The indicator lights should turn solid green again, confirming a good connection.
