Update the Software -
1) Turn on the WiFi-enabled device(s) that you want to connect and scan for wireless
networks.
It may take a few minutes for the network to appear.
2) The label located on the front of the Quick Start Guide or bottom of the unit has the unique
default SSID and password. Select this WiFi signal from the list of wireless networks
and connect. Once the correct SSID has been selected, enter the listed password. We
recommend you set your device(s) to automatically connect with the Winegard Extreme 2.0.
3) Once connected, open an internet browser on your device and type
10.11.12.1
into the
address bar and press ENTER (Figure 28).
This will take you to the Admin Login screen (Figure 29).

4) Under NAVIGATE TO PAGE, select Update Software from the drop-down menu (Figure 30).
5) Select CHECK FOR LATEST VERSION. There will be a slight delay while the Extreme 2.0
compares the current software version to the latest available version. If you have the latest
version there is no need to update the software. Click CANCEL. If you have older software,
click PROCEED (Figure 31).
6) If you clicked PROCEED, the system will be unavailable for several minutes while the
outdoor antenna resets. After it reboots, the system will function normally.
NOTE
: During this reset, your device may switch to a local remembered WiFi network. This
will not allow you to return to the Extreme 2.0 setup screens. If this happens, simply reconnect
manually to the Extreme’s SSID again.
Any changes made to your network settings may result in a temporary loss of all network
connections. You will need to reconnect all devices to the Winegard Extreme with the
changed network name and/or password.
