Frequently Asked Questions - 302528 CSL

How to reset the CSL 302528 repeater to factory settings?
Press and hold the Reset button on the side of the repeater for about 5 seconds. The LEDs will flash and the device will restart with default settings (IP address 192.168.10.2 and SSID CSL_2.4G or CSL_5G).
How to configure the repeater via WPS?
Plug in the repeater, then press the WPS button on the repeater for 3-4 seconds (the WPS LED flashes). Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your router for 2-3 seconds. The connection establishes automatically and the repeater copies the SSID and key of your router.
What is the default IP address of the repeater?
The default IP address is 192.168.10.2. You can also use the URL http://csl.repeater in your browser to access the web interface.
How to switch to Access Point (AP) mode?
Connect the repeater via LAN cable to your router. Access the web interface (192.168.10.2), go to TCP/IP > LAN Interface, set DHCP to Client, apply the changes and restart. The repeater then works as an access point.
What to do if the repeater does not power on?
Check that the power outlet works and the repeater is properly plugged in. Try another outlet. If the power LED still does not light up, contact customer service as the device may be defective.
How to change the password of the web interface?
Log in to the web interface (192.168.10.2), go to Management > Password, enter the old password (blank by default), then enter the new password twice and click Apply.
Wi-Fi signal is weak, what should I do?
Place the repeater halfway between your router and the area you want to extend Wi-Fi. Avoid metal obstacles or thick walls. You can also try changing the Wi-Fi channel via the web interface in WLAN Settings.
Can I use the repeater with a router that does not support WPS?
Yes, you can manually configure the repeater via the web interface. Connect to the default network (CSL_2.4G or CSL_5G), open a browser and enter 192.168.10.2, then select your Wi-Fi network from the list and enter the password.
How to update the firmware of the repeater?
In the web interface, go to Management > Firmware Upgrade. Select the new firmware file (downloaded from the manufacturer's website) and click Upload. Never turn off the power during the update.
The Ethernet LED is flashing but I have no Internet connection?
Check that the LAN cable is properly connected to the repeater's Ethernet port and to your router. Ensure the router distributes IP addresses (DHCP enabled). If the problem persists, restart the repeater and the router.

In the "AP" mode, the WiFi Repeater acts as the access point through which several WiFi devices can connect to the device connected to the LAN/WAN interface (for example, router). Thus, routers without a WiFi function can be extended with this function. Please note! WiFi devices connected to the WiFi Repeater do not get an IP address from the WiFi Repeater, but from the device connected to the LAN interface.

Requirements:

The router or the access point of the WiFi network to be expanded should support WPS. WPS has to be enabled for this purpose.

The SSID (network name) should be set to visible. If a MAC address filtering is enabled, then it is absolutely necessary to enter the MAC address of the WiFi Repeater as an exception.

Note for WPS configuration: While configuring, it can happen that SSID and password are not transmitted properly. Then you have to repeat the process.

The configuration of the AP mode have to be done via the webinterface, to include the AP into the subnet of the homenetwork, to ensure a stable connection.

The WiFi signal is transmitted unsecured (Out of the box), and have to be set manually.
