Extending a Wireless Network
The range of a wireless radio network is not fixed. It depends
on
•
the wireless devices you are using for your wireless LAN
connections
•
interference in the vicinity of your wireless radio network
•
the structural conditions where you operate the wireless
radio network
•
the number of wireless devices in the vicinity of your
FRITZ!Box that work in the same frequency range
You can extend the range of your wireless radio network with
a wireless LAN repeater.
Or you can set up a second FRITZ!Box as a wireless LAN repeat-
er.

less radio network and your home network by WPS Quick Con-
nection. Find out more in the Internet at:
