Troubleshooting: Wireless Issues
I am only getting 3 or 4 wireless signal bars on my wireless computer and I am within 10 feet of the Range
Extender.
a.
Step back at least 10 feet from the Range Extender and check your signal again. The Range Extender
emits high power, long range Wi-Fi signals that may confuse your wireless adapter signal reading at
close range. The speed and signal are at 100%, however your readout may not be displaying the data
correctly.
b.
Check that your antennas are fastened tightly to the antenna connectors.
c.
The wireless channel that your network is running on may be congested. Change the wireless channel
on your Source Router and reconnect the Range Extender.
The range from the Range Extender seems low or the speed is slow.
a.
Check to see that your wireless output settings are at 100%. Go to the Web Menu, Wi-Fi Settings and
check the Wi-Fi Output Power settings. Make sure the output power is at 100%.
b.
Your Range Extender may be installed in a poor location. Avoid setting up your Range Extender in areas
with high interference, such as, near fridges, microwaves, metallic objects and low surfaces. Install the
Range Extender in a higher location if possible.
