Nighthawk DST AC1900 DST Router and DST Adpater Model R7300DST To manually find and select the DST adapter WiFi network: 1. Make sure that the DST adapter is receiving power (its Power LED is lit). 2. On the WiFi device that you want to connect to your DST adapter, open the software application that manages your WiFi connections. This software scans for all WiFi networks in your area. 3. Look for the DST adapter's WiFi network name (SSID) and select it. The DST adapter's WiFi network name is based on the DST router's SSID with _EXT added at the end of the name. If more than one DST adapter is connected to the DST router, for every additional DST adapter after the first, a number is added before _EXT. 4. Enter the DST adapter's WiFi password. The DST adapter's WiFi password is the same as the DST router's WiFi password. Your WiFi device connects to the WiFi network. Connect to the DST Adapter Network With a WPS Connection Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easily adding computers and other devices to a home network while maintaining security. To use WPS (Push 'N' Connect), make sure that all WiFi devices to be connected to the network are Wi-Fi certified and support WPS. During the connection process, the client gets the security settings from the DST router so that every device in the network supports the same security settings. To use WPS to connect to the DST adapter's WiFi network: 1. Make sure that the DST router is receiving power (its Power LED is lit). 2. Check the WPS instructions for your computer or WiFi device. 3. Press and hold the WPS and DST Router Sync button on the DST adapter for two seconds. The WiFi LED on the DST adapter blinks. 4. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your WiFi device (such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone). When the WiFi LED stops blinking, your computer or WiFi device is automatically connected to the DST adapter and you can access the Internet from your computer or WiFi device. Note: Make sure that your WiFi device is in the same room as the DST adapter that you are connecting to. Connect to the DST Adapter Network and Access the DST Adapter 36
