EXTENDER PLACEMENT
The extenders that come with this kit have been paired with the router at the factory, so all you
need to do is position them in your home, plug them in, and turn them on to extend the Wi-Fi®
signal throughout your home. Proper positioning is an important part of extending the Wi-Fi
signal.
The Wi-Fi signal radiates outward from the router and from each extender. The distance it can
cover is largely dependent on the size of your home and the materials it is made from. Brick and
concrete will attenuate the signal more than wooden construction. Additionally, the presence of
electronics, metal materials, and water can reduce the signal strength.
The following guidelines can help in determining where to place the router and extenders.
The extenders work best when their square LED lights are solid blue.
Generally, your mesh Wi-Fi® devices work best when they are no more than two rooms
from each other.
Ensure the router and extenders are evenly spread
out, but not too far from each other.
If you live in a multi-story home, put your mesh Wi-Fi®
device in an open area and try to keep it clear of
clutter.
