The Dual-Band Range Extender now connects automatically to your Wi-Fi router and copies all of
the settings. It can take up to three minutes for the connection to be established. Once the
connection has been successfully established, the Field strength indicator (1) displays the signal
strength. You can now use the Dual-Band Range Extender. The Dual-Band Range Extender can
now be accessed under the host SSID (wireless name) and the host password of your Wi-Fi
router. Your host password can usually be found on your router, provided it has not been
changed by you.
You can now use the Dual-Band Range Extender where the Wi-Fi signal is to be extended. The
optimum location for the Dual-Band Range Extender is exactly in the middle between your
English - 25
