First switch off your BASE modem's Wi-Fi. If you don't, you will have two networks in your home, and some devices may not connect to the Wi-Fi booster! Go to My BASE to turn off your Wi-Fi.
How to install Wi-Fi boosters?
Have you received the Wi-Fi boosters from BASE? Then you can get started on the installation. In a few moments, you will have Wi-Fi throughout your home!
Download the Deco app from Google Play or the App Store. After installation, it allows you to manage your Wi-Fi boosters.
The Deco app guides you through the entire installation. For this, you do need an account with TP-Link.
- Click on "Don't have an account?" on the login screen when opening the app.
- Select X60 when you are asked which model of the Deco you have. This is the one you are going to install.
- Follow the steps in the app.
- Under "Connecting your Deco to the internet", the app asks you to make some settings. Leave these as shown here:
- In the next step, enter a name for your booster's Wi-Fi network. Make sure you don't use the same name as your BASE modem's network. It's best to give it a different name to avoid confusion.
- Under Add more Decos, you can connect your next Wi-Fi booster. Place it in the room where you want more Wi-Fi coverage. The device will be added automatically within two minutes. You can also add Wi-Fi boosters later.
- Open the Deco app and go to the Network tab.
- Click on + in the upper-right corner of the page and select "Add Deco".
- Select model X60, and follow the instructions in the app.
What about after the installation?
You want to personalize your Wi-Fi experience even more? You can set parental controls, manage the access or security of your devices and much more! You can find more info on TP-Link's website.
