Unable to Perform Victony WiFi Extender Setup
It’s very common to see that users come across various technical hurdles that might create issues while doing WiFi extender setup. If you are also not able to get through the technical issues and can’t get access to high-speed internet services, then here we have provided some basic troubleshooting methods to resolve common issues related to the setup.
- Ensure that your WiFi extender is getting the proper power supply by inspecting the power outlet through which it is connected. Any short-circuited or broken power socket can cause the issue. So, try to plug your device into another power socket if you detect any damage in the current one.
- Check all the physical connections as they need to be finger-tight for smooth functioning. Also, inspect the condition of the Ethernet cable you used (if any) to connect your extender to the router. If you find any breakage in the Ethernet cable, then swap it with the new one.
- Avoid any interference in the path of WiFi signals of your device by placing objects like refrigerators, cordless phones, baby monitors, microwaves, or other smart home appliances away from your WiFi extender. These objects use radio frequency for transmission and that can disrupt the WiFi signals leading you to face the setup issues.
- Always double-check the default IP address you have entered to access the Victony login page. Any typo can create an issue restricting you to access the WiFi extender setup page.
- Always keep your internet browser up to date with the latest version. In some cases, using an outdated internet browser can cause issues while accessing the setup page.
