II. Installation

There are two ways to setup the wireless bridge. Please follow the

appropriate instructions.

II-1. iQ Setup

1. Plug the power adapter into the device’s 5V power port, plug the adapter

into a wall socket or available USB port, and press the power on/off button

to switch the device on. The CV-7438nDM may take several minutes to

boot up –the device is ready when the LED is flashing (red).

The CV-7438nDM requires 1 A of current –please ensure that your

USB port can provide sufficient power. If not, use the 5V DC

adapter.

2. Use a Wi-Fi device (e.g. computer, tablet, smartphone) to search for a

Wi-Fi network with the SSID “Edimaxcv.Setup” and connect to it.

3. Open a web browser and enter the URL http://edimaxcv.setup and you

will see the following screen. Please click “Get Started”.

If you can’t access http://edimaxcv.setup please make sure your

wireless device/computer is set to use a dynamic IP address. For

more information, refer to the user manual. You can also use the

wireless bridge’s default IP address http://192.168.9.2

You can change the language using the drop down menu in the

top right corner.

4. iQ Setup will display all available 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless networks. Click

the icons to display the next or previous page as desired. Select a

network for the wireless bridge to connect to and click “Next”.

If the Wi-Fi network you wish to connect to does not appear, try

clicking “Refresh”.

If you use a hidden network, to connect to a hidden SSID, check

the “Connect to a hidden network manually” box and enter the

SSID and security key information.

5. Please wait while the wireless bridge tests the connection.

6. When the connection test is complete, you will see the following screen.

Check the details of your connection and click “Apply” to restart the

CV-7438nDM and continue.

If the wireless bridge cannot obtain an IP address from the

router/access point then click the “Static IP” button to assign an

IP address to the wireless bridge and then click “APPLY”. Please

refer to the user manual for more guidance.

7. A congratulations screen will confirm your wireless bridge has established

a connection.

If you do not see the congratulations screen shown above, check

the LED: if the LED displays on (white)then the wireless bridge has

successfully established a connection. Continue to III. Using the

CV-7438nDM.

When the Wi-Fi bridge’s LED displays on (white), the wireless bridge is now ready

for use with audio speakers or Ethernet devices such as smart TVs, set-top boxes or

game consoles. Please see III. Using the CV-7438nDM.

II-2. WPS Setup

WPS setup is an alternative to II-1. iQ Setup. If you already

completed iQ Setup, please continue to III. Using the CV-7438nDM.

The WPS button is a quick and easy method to establish a secure connection

between your wireless bridge and wireless router/access point. The wireless

bridge can connect to either 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi networks via WPS,

depending on which frequency’s WPS is active on your wireless router/access

point.

1. Plug the power adapter into the device’s 5V power port, plug the adapter

into a wall socket or available USB port, and press the power on/off button

to switch the device on. The CV-7438nDM may take several minutes to

boot up –the device is ready when the LED is flashing (red).

The CV-7438nDM requires 1 A of current –please ensure that your

USB port can provide sufficient power. If not, use the 5V DC

adapter.

2. Press and hold the WPS button on your wireless router/access point for

the correct length of time to activate its WPS.

Please check the instructions for your wireless router/access point

to confirm how long you need to hold down its WPS button to

activate WPS for 2.4GHz or 5GHz. Some brands of router/access

point may not support WPS for 5GHz –in this case, please refer to

II-1. iQ Setup instead.

3. Within two minutes, press and hold the WPS button on the CV-7438nDM

for 2 seconds to activate the WPS function. The LED should flash (white)to

indicate that WPS is in progress.

4. The devices will establish a connection. When a connection is successful,

the bridge’s LED will display on (white). If a connection is not successful,

the LED will flash (red)–in this case please return to II-2. WPS Setup Step
