Frequently Asked Questions - WIR 2.0 Andersson

How do I set up the Andersson WIR 2.0 wireless repeater for the first time?

Plug the repeater into a wall socket. Use the enclosed RJ-45 cable to connect your computer to the repeater, or connect wirelessly by selecting the repeater's network (SSID: WiFi-Repeater). Open a web browser and go to http://192.168.10.1. Log in with default username admin and password admin. Follow the on-screen wizard to select Repeater Mode, choose your existing Wi-Fi network, enter its password, and apply.

What is the default IP address and login for the WIR 2.0?

The default IP address is 192.168.10.1. The default username and password are both admin.

How can I change the management password?

Log into the web interface. Go to Management > Password. Enter a new password, retype it, and click Apply. The device will log off; use the new password to log in again.

Can I use the WIR 2.0 as a standalone access point?

Yes. In the web interface, select AP Mode instead of Repeater mode. Connect the repeater to your router via an RJ-45 cable. Configure the SSID and security settings, then apply. The device will act as a wireless access point.

How do I reset the WIR 2.0 to factory defaults?

Press and hold the RESET button on the device for a few seconds using a paperclip. Release when the lights flash. All settings will be restored to factory defaults, including IP (192.168.10.1) and login (admin/admin).

What security types does the WIR 2.0 support?

It supports WEP (64/128-bit), WPA, WPA2, and WPA/WPA2 PSK (TKIP/AES). It is recommended to use WPA2 for better security.

How do I connect devices using WPS?

Press the WPS button on the WIR 2.0 for 2-3 seconds. Then press the WPS button on your wireless adapter (e.g., laptop) within two minutes. The connection will be established automatically.

How can I update the firmware?

Download the latest firmware from the Andersson support website. Log into the web interface, go to Management > Upgrade Firmware. Click Browse to select the firmware file, then click Upload. Do not interrupt the process until complete.

Why can't I access the web interface?

Ensure your computer is set to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) or manually set to 192.168.10.x (e.g., 192.168.10.100) with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Try pressing the RESET button to restore defaults. If using a wireless connection, make sure you are connected to the repeater's SSID.

Does the WIR 2.0 support gigabit Ethernet?

No, the RJ-45 port is a Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) port, not Gigabit. This is sufficient for extending typical home Wi-Fi speeds.
