Setting up Linksys Velop as access point is the best option if you want to increase the coverage of your current network without changing your primary router. Here is a brief and easy-to-follow setup guide:

1. Get the Velop System ready

• Power on the Velop node and connect it to your modem/router using an Ethernet connection.

• Verify that the cable enters the node's bottom Ethernet port.

2. Open the Linksys application.

• Download and launch the Linksys app on your smartphone.

• Use your Velop Linksys login credentials to create or access your Linksys account.

3. Launch the Configuration Wizard

• Click Set up as Access Point after selecting Set up a new product and Velop.

• The program will auto-detect your existing network.

4. Set Up the Network Configuration

Name your wireless network and establish a password. • You may maintain the same SSID as your primary network for easy traveling.

5. Position Additional Nodes (Optional)

• To expand Wi-Fi coverage across the house, plug in any more nodes.

• Keep things in balance; don't put nodes too near or too far away.

6. Update the Firmware: 

• To guarantee security and optimal performance, navigate to the Administration page after setup and complete a Linksys Velop firmware update.

7. Last Verification

• Restart your router and Velop devices.

• To ensure complete coverage, test the Wi-Fi signal in several rooms.
