Step 4: Set up the WiFi connection between a master and a satellite This step refers to a configuration with two AirBridges that function in a master-to-satellite setup. We recommend that you complete the initial pairing of the AirBridges at a staging area with easy access to the network that is to supply connectivity to the master. This hardware installation manual describes the hardware setup, not the software configuration, which you must perform using one of the following management methods: • Local browser UI. See the user manual, which you can download from netgear.com/support/download/. • NETGEAR Insight. Visit netgear.com/insight and see the NETGEAR knowledge base articles at netgear.com/support. Perform the setup of the WiFi connection in the following order: • Step 4a: Set up the WiFi connection on the master at the main site • Step 4b: Set up and establish the WiFi connection on the satellite at the main site • Step 4c: Reestablish the WiFi connection on the satellite at the detached site Note: You must provide the Ethernet cables that are required for the setup.
