Move the Range Extender
When the connection is complete, locate the Range Extender
between the router/AP and the wireless device to get better
performance. After placing your RP-AC56 in an ideal location, RP-
AC56 connects to your router/AP in about one (1) minute.
Signal Indicator
• To get the best performance, place the Range Extender
between your router/AP and wireless device.
• The Wi-Fi signal indicator indicates the connection perfor
-
mance from the Range Extender to the router/AP. Refer to the
Wi-Fi LED indicator in section
A Quick Look
.
NOTES:
• Place your RP-AC56 between your router/AP and wireless
device to get the best extender performance.
• Place your RP-AC56 in a location where you can get green Wi-
Fi LED.
IMPORTANT!
• To minimize interference, keep RP-AC56 away from devices
like cordless phones, Bluetooth devices and microwave ovens.
• We recommend that you place your RP-AC56 in open or
spacious location.
3. Check if RP-AC56’s Wi-Fi indicator turns solid light, which indi-
cates 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 Networ-
kName_RPT
New Extender 5GHz network name:
existing Networ-
kName_RPT5G
To connect an additional Wi-Fi device to your Extender net-
work, use the same network password as that of your existing
wireless router.
