AmpliFi Mesh Point Hd

Product Information

Wi-Fi not ready or connected: The router LED will be lit at the minimum brightness setting. The LEDs of the MeshPoints will light up in sequence from the middle outwards. Pair the MeshPoint with the AmpliFi™ Router to expand the coverage of an AmpliFi™ network or turn an existing router into a powerful mesh network. My first go-round setting up the mesh point ended up in such a quagmire that I reset it and started over with a different mobile device. Both mobile devices ran version 1.6.0 (released June 16, 2017) of the AmpliFi Android app. Michael Horowitz/IDG

I unplugged the mesh point, and it sat overnight. The next day, I put it in a different location, but still in the same room as the router. Like real estate, it seems the key to getting to the best performance out of the mesh point is location, location, location. Again, none of this is documented. Bootup state: The router LED will be lit at the minimum brightness setting. The bottom LED of the MeshPoints will be lit for 15-20 seconds, and then the LEDs will light up in sequence from bottom to top for 10-15 seconds. If your mesh point(s) have disconnected themselves from your router, the pairing protocol might need to be realigned between the mesh points and the router. The troubleshooting steps are different for mesh points that came with the router in the AmpliFi HD kit (AFI-HD) for example and the mesh points that are sold separately (AFI-P-HD). Please find the troubleshooting steps for each type of mesh point below. This article applies to all our product lines (AmpliFi HD, Instant, Gamer and Alien lines).If you do want to tweak the settings, however, then the Amplifi app does an excellent job of providing you with advanced networking tools, such as port forwarding and guest network access, in an easy-to-use interface that we’ve come to expect from this router.

Make sure WPS is also enabled in the device you are trying to connect to AmpliFi (for example a wireless printer, a wireless camera, etc). Enabling WPS on the webUI Plug in your AmpliFi router or MeshPoint. The MeshPoint will have the 3 middle LEDs flashing, indicating that the MeshPoint is ready to be added.

All client devices connected to your AmpliFi network can be viewed and managed in the Devices tab found in the mobile app. Devices are automatically identified based on the first 6 characters of their MAC ID, known as the OUI (Organizational Unique Identifier). Devices will first appear with generic names and WiFi icon if they cannot be identified by their OUI, until you customize them. Note To add the AmpliFi router in bridge mode instead of a network extender, please refer to this article.The Alien product line does not support third party mode. You can scan the QR code on the devices using the camera of your smartphone or tablet to view the MAC ID. Standalone HD Mesh Router (AFI-R) is great for powerful coverage in an average sized space. Additionally, the standalone mesh router can be a powerful tool when added to existing AmpliFi systems.
