Where to find more help
•
Linksys.com/support/Velop
•
Linksys app help (launch the app and click Help in the main navigation menu)
Note—Licenses and notices for third party software used in this product may be viewed on
http://support.linksys.com/en-us/license. Please contact http://support.linksys.com/enus/gplcodecenter for questions or GPL source code requests.
Set Up
Download the Linksys app. You need this app to set up Velop.
Go to the app store for your device and search for Linksys.
Install the app, open it and follow the instructions.
Note—The app works with iOS 8.x and later, and Android 4.0.3 and later.
During setup you will create a Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account so you can use the app to view or change
your Velop system settings from anywhere you have an internet connection.
Among the many things you can do with Linksys Smart Wi-Fi:
•
Change your Wi-Fi name and password
•
Set up guest access
•
Connect devices to Wi-Fi with WPS
•
Block internet with parental controls
•
Test your internet connection speed
Note—During setup we’ll send a verification email. From your home network, click the link in the
email.
Other than plugging in the power and the ethernet cable, the app-based setup process does the work
for you. Once connected, use the app to personalize your Wi-Fi by giving it a name and password. You
also can give nodes names based on where they are so you can identify them in the rare case where
things need attention.
What you’ll need
Find a power source near to your modem or modem router. Connect to your first node.
If you have more than one node, they can be set up anywhere within range of another working node.
Only one node has to be wired to the modem or modem router. Don’t worry, the app will help you place
your nodes.

Velop System Settings
Using your Linksys app, you can view or change Velop system settings to make your Wi-Fi more
secure or to work better with a device or game. You can access settings from anywhere in the world if
you have an internet connection, but you can also access your Velop system directly from your home
network if you are not online.
Log in to your Linksys Smart Wi-Fi cloud account
1. Open the Linksys app.
2. Enter the email address you used when creating your account.
3. Enter your account password.
4. Tap Log in.
12
Dashboard
Dashboard is a snapshot of your Wi-Fi. See how many devices are connected to your Velop system.
Share Wi-Fi password and allow guest access to your Wi-Fi. Dashboard also shows you if any devices
have parental controls on them or have been prioritized for Wi-Fi access.
13
Devices
View and change details for all devices connected to your Wi-Fi. You can view devices on your main
network and your guest network, or display information about each device.
14
To view or change device details
From the Devices screen you can edit device names and change the device icons. You also can
prioritize devices, set parental controls, and see Wi-Fi details. Tap on any device to see details.
15
Wi-Fi Settings
View or change your Wi-Fi name and password and connect devices using Wi-Fi Protected Setup™.
16
Advanced Settings
Advanced users can change the default security type and Wi-Fi mode. Do not change these unless
you have a lot of experience with Wi-Fi networks. Channel Finder will search for the most-open Wi-Fi
channels in your area to ensure you get the best performance from your Velop system. If you have
more than one node in your Velop system, Channel Finder will find the best channel for each node.
17
Connect a Device with WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup allows you to easily connect wireless devices to your Wi-Fi without manually
entering security settings.
18
Guest Access
Use your Guest Access to allow guests to get online while restricting their access to other resources
connected to your Wi-Fi. Send the password by text message or email.
19
Speed Test
Run a speed test to make sure you are getting the speeds you are paying for. Speed test also helps in
Device Prioritization because results determine how Wi-Fi is distributed to the prioritized devices.
•
Download speed is the rate at which internet content is transferred to your Velop system.
•
Upload speed is the rate at which you can upload content to the internet.
Note—Internet connection speeds are determined by a variety of factors, including ISP account
type, local and worldwide internet traffic, and number of devices in your home that are sharing
the internet connection.
20
Parental Controls
Parental controls allow you to control when your kids are online and what they’re doing there. Block
internet to specific devices, or block specific websites.
21
Device Prioritization
Choose up to three devices for priority usage of your internet connection. Those devices --- wired
and/or wireless --- always will have the best access when connected. Velop runs a speed test to
determine how to best distribute Wi-Fi to prioritized devices. Other devices will share the leftover
capacity. Prioritized devices appear on Dashboard.
22
Notifications
Velop can notify you when nodes in your system go offline. You can also ask Velop to alert you when a
node is connected with an Ethernet cable to another node and is ready for setup. You have to turn on
notifications in your mobile device settings to allow Velop to notify you.
23
Velop Administration
Use the Velop Administration screen to change the admin password and hint, and check various
identifiers (model number, serial number, and IP details) for all nodes in your Wi-Fi.
Opt in to automatically report crashes to Linksys and contribute to improving the Wi-Fi experience.
You also can manually report specific issues to Linksys.
24
The following information will be sent with your description of the issue:
•
App version
•
Login Type (cloud: show email address associated,
local: display "Velop admin")
•
Device model
•
WAN Connection type (display Wi-Fi or Ethernet)
•
Device OS version
•
Time: date (mo/day/year, time, time zone)
25
Advanced Settings
Internet Settings
You can choose how your Velop system connects to the internet. The default is Automatic
Configuration – DHCP. Other connection types depend on your internet service provider or how you
plan to use your Velop system. Advanced users can use Additional Settings to clone MAC addresses
and set MTU (maximum transmission unit).
26
Port Settings
Port forwarding-----for a single port, multiple ports or a range of ports-----sends traffic inbound on a
specific port or ports to a specific device or port on your Wi-Fi. In port range triggering, Velop
watches outgoing data for specific port numbers. Velop remembers the IP address of the device that
requests the data so that when the requested data returns, it is routed back to the proper device.
27
Wi-Fi MAC Filters
Every network device has a unique 12-digit MAC (media access control) address. You can create a list
of MAC addresses, and then allow or deny those devices on your Wi-Fi.
28

Feedback
Here's your chance to tell us what you think. Rate the app at your app store, send us a suggestion, or
report an issue that's keeping you from a great experience.
31
Connect Directly To Velop
If you are not connected to the internet you still can access your Velop system. Connect to your Wi-Fi
name, launch the Linksys app and tap Log in with Admin Password toward the bottom of the screen.
You will not be able to access your Linksys Wi-Fi account when not online.
32
Velop admin password
We created a secure Velop admin password during setup. To change it, tap Velop Administration and
Change Admin Password and Hint.
To keep your Velop system secure, we'll send you an email if someone changes the admin password.
33
How to restore factory defaults
You should never need to factory reset your Velop-----a very disruptive process. A factory reset
restores your Velop system to the state it was when you took it out of its box, requiring you to go
through the setup process again. All settings you have customized in setup and since --- things such as
Wi-Fi name, passwords, security type --- will be erased. All wireless devices will disconnect from your
Wi-Fi.
To reset Velop:
•
With your node connected to power and turned on, press and hold the Reset button on the
bottom. The light on top of the node will turn red and fade in pulses. Do not release the button
until the light goes out and then turns bright red.
Note—If you have more than one node in your Velop system, you might need to reset them all to
factory default settings. You can do that by resetting the main node; all other nodes will reset
automatically.
