 Extender

Connect an Ethernet-Enabled Device

After the extender is connected to your existing WiFi network, you can connect a wired 

device to the extender using an Ethernet cable. The device can then access your existing 
network through the extender’s WiFi connection.

Use the Extender in Access Point Mode

You can use the extender as a WiFi access point, which creates a new WiFi hotspot by using 
a wired Ethernet connection.
