ASUS_RPAC52/ASUS_RPAC52_5G (the dual band SSID)
wireless network.
2.Launch a web browser and enter http://repeater.asus.com in the address bar to access the Range Extender.

Option B: Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
1.Press the WPS button on the side of the Range Extender for more than two seconds, until the system indicator flashes.
2.Press the WPS button on the router within two minutes.
NOTE: Refer to the router’s manual for the location of the WPS button. When using WPS connection, you might connect only to one band at one time even if the router is dual band.
3.Check if the Range Extender’s system indicator turns into solid blue, which indicates that the Range Extender has connected to the wireless network successfully. The Range Extender’s wireless network name (SSID) changes to your existing Wi-Fi network name, ending with _RPT or _RPT5G. For example:
Existing Wi-Fi network name: existing NetworkName
New Extender 2.4GHz network name: existing NetworkName_RPT
New Extender 5GHz network name: existing NetworkName_RPT5G
<![endif]>English
To connect an additional Wi-Fi device to your Extender network, use the same network password as that of your existing wireless router.
Move the Range Extender
When the connection is complete, locate the Range Extender between the router and the wireless device to get better performance.
NOTE: To get the best connection performance, ensure that at least two signal indicators light up.
Signal Indicators
•To get the best performance, place the Range Extender between your router and wireless device.
•The 2.4GHz & 5GHz signal indicators indicate the connection performance from the Range Extender to the Router. Refer to the LED indicators in section A Quick Look.
•If the router does not support or has weak 5GHz signal, only the 2.4GHz signal indicators will light up.
•If no 2.4GHz signal indicator lights up, search the network again in Option A or make sure that your router supports WPS in Option B.

Wireless Media Playback
The Range Extender supports wireless media playback, which allows you to stream and play your network music through its audio port. You can use ASUS AiPlayer app to control the music streaming over the Range Extender from your mobile device. Search for “RP-AC52” or “AiPlayer” from Google Play or App Store and download the app to your mobile device.
NOTES:
•AiPlayer supports mp3, wav., flac, and acc files.
•You can insert an earphone, powered speaker, or stereo system to the 3.5mm stereo audio port.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Why doesn’t the 5GHz signal indicator of the Range Extender light up?
•Check whether your router supports 5GHz band. If your router is single band, the Range Extender’s 5GHz Signal Indicator will not light up and it works at 2.4GHz band only.
Q2: Why doesn’t the touch controller work?
•Ensure that you touch the area correctly. Refer to A Quick Look for the location of the touch area.
Q3: My router security is WEP, and I entered a wrong passphrase or security key on the extender. Now I cannot access the Extender any more. What can I do?
•The Range Extender cannot check whether the WEP passphrase is correct or not. When entered a wrong passphrase, your wireless device cannot get the correct IP address from the Range Extender. Please reset the Range Extender to its factory defaults to get the IP address back.
Q4: When I connect a speaker or stereo system to RP-AC52, there is no sound coming out when I play audio files.
•Make sure that you have not turned off the audio output via the touch controller. The touch controller is set to turn on/off the night light and mute/unmute the audio by default. You can log into the Range Extender’s Web GUI to change the settings.
