The HUMAX Wi-Fi system is
a package product that is preconfigured to connect (hereafter referred to as ‘paired’ or ‘pairing’) between two or more routers, and widens the range of Wi-Fi wireless environment at your home without difficult installation or setting.
This system allows individual routers to be installed in the best spots, so that Wi-Fi can be used throughout your home. Here, the Wi-Fi operates as a single network.
With only one network name (SSID) and password allocated to every actual user, you can experience Wi-Fi roaming more seamlessly without any need for several Wi-Fi settings.

What is ‘Master’ and ‘Node’?
Master refers to the main router connected to external Internet network or modem.
Node refers to such a router working in conceptual form of ‘extender’ as connected with the master.

Depending on our product packages,
one master consists of one or two nodes.
HUMAX Wi-Fi system allows you to set up to 3 nodes per master.
You can just select a desired package depending on the number of nodes based on the structure and size of your home where you want to install the system.

For more detailed information on our product packages, please refer to ‘Product Information for Each Package’ in FAQs.
Now you can see and get various packages of HUMAX Wi-Fi systems that can improve inconveniences of existing router or Wi-Fi system in use!

Installing the Maste

Installing the Node

1. Place a node where you want to extend the Wi-Fi signal coverage, and connect the power of node with the power adapter enclosed.
2. While the power LED turns on and the pairing LED is blinking, the master connection is checked, so wait until the pairing LED stops blinking.
Once the master-to-node pairing is completed, the pairing LED of node turns on in green.



Installing the Node

*Note
1. In HUMAX Wi-Fi system, its master and nodes are already paired with each other in the package.
Therefore, you can use the system simply by connecting to the power line and the Internet without manually setting pairing. (However, it may require extra setting depending upon some Internet lines and product usage.)
2. If the pairing LED is constantly blinking, move the node into another position.
The proper distance between master and node ranges from at least 1 meter to 15 meters depending on the surrounding environment.
3. If you have two nodes, you can install the subsequent node in the same procedure as described above.



If you want to use a node in connection to the bottom of modem or router, please refer to the ‘Product Installation (for Using the Product with the Existing Router or Modem)’ in FAQs.

If you want to use the product with existing router or modem, install the product as follows:



Installing the Master
1. First, turn off the modem.
2. Connect the LAN port of modem to the Internet port of the master via the LAN cable enclosed.
3. Connect the Internet line to the Internet port of the master.
4. Connect the power of the master with the enclosed power adapter.
5. Turn on the modem.
6. Wait until the power and Internet LEDs are turned on.


Tips!
Once the master is completely installed, please download and install the mobile app for the HUMAX Wi-Fi system!
You can check the installation status of master through the mobile app.

The device listed on the leftmost is the master, and the paired nodes are listed to the right side of the master.



Step 3
Tap the menu on the right side of the master or nodes you want to check, so you can check the IP address assigned to them.

The IP address of the master means the WAN IP address assigned from the external network,


and the IP address of the node means the LAN IP address assigned to the internal network.

NOTE!
1) If the Internet connection is ‘offline’, it means that the Internet is not connected normally, so please check the Internet cable for proper connection at first.
If the Internet is normally connected but it still appears ‘offline’ on screen 2) If the IP address of master is displayed as ‘–’, it means that the IP address has not been received normally from the Internet.
3) If the IP address of node is displayed as ‘–’, it means that the IP address has not been received normally from the master. Check the node(s) for proper pairing status.

2. Check the IP Address of Connected Devices
You can check the IP address of the wired / wireless devices (PC, smart phone, etc.) connected in HUMAX Wi-Fi System.
