Repeater

Important when the MESH function is already being used the Repeater function will
not work. When you would like to use the Repeater function, please make sure to
disable the MESH function. After Repeater is enabled you need to click on the slider
bar to select your primary router. Select the SSID you like to connect to and enter
the wireless password for that router. When the repeater mode is in use in the same
network as the primary router make sure there is no network cable connected the
WAN port of the slave device (the one which enabled repeater mode).
