appliances or obstructions and walls. Typical ranges vary based on the types of
materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or office.

In order to optimize the performance of extender, please follow the instructions
below to achieve an ideal location (please make sure it is always within the
wireless coverage of the wireless router).

This chapter covers the following topics:

● Half-way Between Generally, the ideal location for extender is half-way

between the Wireless router and Wireless Client. If the wireless signal is
not satisfactory, you may place extender somewhat nearer to the Wireless
router.

● Less Obstacles - Clear obstacles in the way between extender and

WirОlОss routОr. It’s bОttОr to locate it in a spacious place, such as near the
corridors.

Connect the Extender to the Internet

● Less Interference - Choose a location away from Bluetooth devices and

Using your web browser.

other household electronics, such as cordless phone, microwave, and
baby monitor, etc., to minimize signal interference.

 Place your extender in a well-ventilated place far from direct sunlight,

any heater or heating vent.

 Leave at least 2 inches (5cm) space around the device for heat

dissipation.

 Turn off your extender and unplug the power adapter in a lighting

storm to avoid damage.

 Use appropriate Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0

or above, Netscape Navigator 6.0 or above.

 Operating temperature of the extender should be 0℃~40℃ (32℉

~104℉).

 Operating humidity of the extender should be 10%~90%RH

(Non-condensing).

Power On

Plug the extender into an electrical outlet near your router, and wait until
the Power LED is lit and solid blue.
