a. The first step of the ‘Quick Setup’ is to locate a position to place your
Smart Repeater. The position should be a location where the
Repeater can pick up the signal that you wish to repeat (i.e. the
neighbor’s wireless connection, local hot spot, etc.).
b. Click Scan to locate all the networks within your area. Once you have
found the network you wish to repeat, highlight it and click Next. Each
wireless network will be listed with their respective signal strengths and
whether or not they are using security. For secure networks, you will
need to have the correct key to access the network. If you do not you
will not be able to repeat this network. It is recommended that the
signal strength of the network you are trying to repeat is above 50% to
ensure a solid connection to the Internet. Without a stable Internet
connection, the rebroadcasted signal will be unstable as well.
c. The ‘Quick Setup’ wizard will now attempt to connect to your wireless
Internet connection.
Select “Automatic Setup” to have the wizard automatically configure the
IP settings of your Internet Connection. Most networks use Dynamic
IP settings to automatically assign IP Addresses to incoming
connections. If the network you are connecting does not use Dynamic
IP settings you will need to manually configure (Manual Setup) your IP
settings.
