Connecting range extender to router via ethernet

2023-06-29 19:03:43 - last edited 2023-06-30 06:30:21

I have a cat6 Ethernet cable from my home router to a remote observatory. I want to connect my router Ethernet cable to the AC1200 RE315 so that I will have WiFi in the observatory.
Do I simply connect the router Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the AC1200 to enter the set up mode ??

Thanks for any wisdom

Cheers

@Whistlestop

To be able to do that you'll have to configure the RE315 in AP mode - here's a guide for that.

You can also refer to your RE315 user guide for this scenario - here.
