If the Extended Network connection fails try the following…
a.
Check to see that your Home Network security settings are correct.
b.
Check on the SCAN screen that your Home Network is showing a signal of 70% or greater. If not, move
the Range Extender closer to your Home Network router and try again.
c.
Check that your Home Network router’s DHCP server is enabled.
d.
Try changing the channel of the Home Network router to a higher channel number (5-11) and run the
Wizard again.
e.
If possible, check the Internet connection for your Home Network Wi-Fi router. Connect directly to
your Home Network Wi-Fi router. If you are unable to access the internet through the Home Network
Wi-Fi router, you must first fix this problem. The Range Extender will not be able to obtain internet
access through a router that does not have internet access. Once Internet access is restored on your
Home Network Wi-Fi router, connect to the Range Extender again and retry the Wizard.
f.
Return to the Wizard and attempt to connect to another Home Network known to have Internet
access.
g.
Reboot (unplug the power adapter of the Range Extender from the power outlet and plug it back in)
the Range Extender and check to see if the connection is established (some networks may be very
slow and take longer than the allotted time for the Range Extender to successfully connect).
