Location Assistant

After setup, the Status LED on the left side of the Wi-Fi Extender+ and the Kasa app will detect whether
the device's signal strength is too strong or too weak. You can use either the Status LED or Location
Assistant to help you reposition the extender to an optimal location (if needed).
Please note that any time you relocate the Wi-Fi Extender+, make sure that you wait until the device is
fully powered up and all LED Indicators stop blinking after plugging the extender into a wall outlet. If the
Status LED is green, your Wi-Fi Extender+ is placed in an optimal location.
The Location Assistant can also be accessed anytime from the Device Settings page.
