Troubleshooting

NOTE
Your RE6500 works on 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks.
You cannot get your extender connected
Check the position of your router and extender
For first-time setup, you may need to place the extender closer to the
router. After you've set up your extender, you can unplug it and move it to
the final location.
To reduce signal obstructions, try alternate locations for the router and
extender.
Avoid placing the router and extender near metal objects, masonry walls,
and reflective surfaces such as glass or mirrors.
Avoid placing the router and extender near other electronics that may
cause signal interference.
If you're using Wi-Fi Protected Setup to connect
Wait until the Wi-Fi Protected Setup indicator stops blinking before trying
to make the connection again.
You cannot access your range extender
To access your range extender, you must be connected to your own network. If
you currently have wireless Internet access, the problem may be that you have
accidentally connected to a different wireless network.
For Mac instructions, see "To fix the problem on Mac computers:" on page 8.
To fix the problem on Windows computers:
1.
