Connect the Extender to the Internet

Relocate your Extender
a)
Plug in the extender to an electrical outlet around the midpoint
between your router (Host Network) and the weak signal area.
b)
Wait for the extender to reconnect and both Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz)
LEDs are lit a solid green. If not, relocate the extender closer to the
router.
Unless you customized the extended network names during the
configuration (step 4d), the extender adds
_EXT
to the end of the main
network’s SSIDs and uses the same Wi-Fi password.
For example: If the SSIDs of your main Wi-Fi network are
MyHome
(for
2.4GHz) and
MyHome_5G
(for 5GHz). The extended network’s SSIDs will
be
MyHome_EXT
and
MyHome_5G_EXT
.
2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi LEDs
Green:
Good connection.
Amber:
Connection is established, but the extender is too
far away from the main (host) router.
