fliwatuet Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 (edited) Hello everyone, I have some issues understanding how to use the Range Extender: I have two Shelly Plus 1 PMs, one of which has a poor Wi-Fi signal. Therefore, I want to use the Range Extender. However, I encounter the following problem when assigning a static IP address: General: Gateway: 192.168.2.1 (Router) Network Mask: 255.255.255.0 Shelly I: Strong Wi-Fi signal Range Extender active Access Point activated with password Static IP: 192.168.2.237 Shelly II: I want to assign a static IP of 192.168.2.231. However, when I enter the settings under "Static IP," no connection is established. Settings: IP: 192.168.2.231 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.2.1 (Router) DNS: 192.168.2.1 or empty If I don't assign a static IP address, Shelly II connects, but it doesn't have the desired IP address. Instead, it gets the IP of Shelly I with 192.168.2.237:13740. Edited June 12 by fliwatuet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pluto Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 If I recall correctly, the range extender creates it's own network onto which clients connect. https://support.shelly.cloud/en/support/solutions/articles/103000222505-range-extender-functionality This network has its own IP range and the Shelly is the DHCP server for that network. The network is `192.168.33.1/24`. The web port (port 80) of connected Shelly will be accessible via the "Extender Shelly" on port `800x` where `x` is the client IP of the Shelly. So a Shelly connected to the range extender at `192.168.2.237` with an IP of `192.168.33.2` will be accessible at `192.168.2.237:8002` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
