A Range Extender only works as well as the signal it is extending.
Therefore, proper placement of your DAP-1620 is important in
achieving desired results.
For best performance, place your DAP-1620 in between your
router and your dead zone, making sure it’s placed in a location
where the Wi-Fi signal is still strong. Use the Smart Signal Indicator
to help nd a location where the signal is still strong. The more
bars lit on the signal indicator, the stronger the Wi-Fi signal is.
