If the Router Link LED lights green, the connection between your router and extender
is good. If the Router Link LED lights amber or red, move the extender closer to the
router and try again.
Note: If your router supports the 5 GHz band and your extender didn’t connect to
that band, repeat the WPS process.
3. Unplug your extender and move it to a new location.
We recommend that the new location be about halfway between your router and
the area with a poor WiFi signal.
The extender must be within the range of your router WiFi network.
4. Power on your extender.
5. Use the Router Link LED to help you choose a spot where the extender-to-router
connection is optimal.
Keep moving the extender to outlets closer to the router until the Router Link LED
lights green.
6.
If the Router Link LED doesn’t light green, plug the extender into an outlet closer to
the router and try again.
Keep moving the extender to outlets closer to the router until the Router Link LED
lights green.
7. Reconnect your computer or mobile device to the new extender WiFi network.
After the setup, the One WiFi Name feature is enabled, which allows your extender
to use the same WiFi network settings as your router.
8. Connect your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the extended network.
Your extender uses the same WiFi network settings as your router for its 2.4 GHz
and 5 GHz extended networks.
