phone in that area to test the connection.
• If your wireless router or access point does not support WPS, follow
the steps on the other side of this QIG to connect to the DAP-1320 and
run the Setup Wizard. If you are not sure how to enable WPS on your
wireless router, please refer to your router user manual.

A Range Extender only works as well as the signal it is extending.
Therefore, proper placement of your DAP-1320 is important in
achieving desired results.

For best performance, place your DAP-1320 in between your
router and your dead zone, making sure it's placed in a location
where the signal is still strong.

Press the WPS button on your wireless router.
3 Within one minute, press the WPS button on the DAP-1320.
The LED will start to blink.
When the LED turns solid green, this indicates that the DAP-1320 is
securely connected to your wireless router or access point. If the LED is
solid amber, the DAP-1320 is too far from your router. Try moving it to a
closer location.
You can now unplug and move the DAP-1320 to a location

between your wireless router and the area that you need
wireless coverage.
Connect Your Wireless Devices

the available wireless networks and select the Wi-Fi Network
Name (SSID) for the DAP-1320.
When using WPS to connect to the router, the SSID on the
DAP-1320 will automatically be assigned the following:
(Your Router's SSID)-EXT
The Wi-Fi password for your router will be the same password
for the DAP-1320.

this step.

connect to your wireless router. If you want to change your
network settings, password, etc., follow the steps on the
back to connect and configure the DAP-1320. To connect
additional devices, repeat step 5.
Your setup is complete!
