After enable the repeater mode, you can click on “

Wireless Network

” and choose “

Site Survey

” to pick 

one of the SSIDs you would like to retransmit its signal. (Please be noted that while using the repeater 

mode, the throughput performance maybe nearly only half compare with Access Point mode. Because 

the repeater needs to communicate with original AP and also the clients associate to the repeater at the 

same time.) 

 

Site Survey 

 

After click on the “

Site Survey

” button, you can choose the Access Point you need to extend its range by

” the change to make sure system working properly with new 

setting. After all the changes are made, you can check the “

” page to check current SSID 

and link quality / signal strength. Some more information is available at that page.
