AC1900 WiFi Range Extender
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

coverage you need.

Support for the 801.11ac Networking Standard
The extender supports the 802.11ac networking standard. This new standard offers better
speed, improved reliability, and more range than older WiFi networking standards.
The extender is backward compatible with earlier WiFi standards. However, to get the
benefits of 802.11ac, your WiFi router must support the 802.11ac WiFi networking standard.
