AC750 Dual Band WiFi Range Extender
How the Extender Works
The extender works like a bridge between a WiFi router (or a WiFi access point) and a WiFi
device outside the range of the WiFi router. The extender performs two main jobs:
• The extender connects to a working WiFi network.
When the extender connects over WiFi to an existing network, it functions as a network
client, similar to how a WiFi device connects to a network.
• The extender acts as an access point for WiFi devices.
The extender broadcasts its own WiFi network that WiFi devices can join. In its role as an
access point, the extender performs tasks that WiFi routers do, such as broadcasting its
network name (SSID).
The extender must do each of these jobs so that both ends of the bridge are in place.
Existing WiFi
Sometimes your
router does not
provide the WiFi
coverage that you
need.
WiFi Range Extender
Boosts the range of
your existing WiFi and
creates a stronger
signal in hard-to-reach
areas.
