Assessing Uplink Signal Strength - D-Link DAP-X1870 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation

Assessing Uplink Signal Strength

The Status/WPS LED will turn solid green when the DAP-X1870 has connected successfully to a wireless network and is
extending that network. If the Smart Signal LED has a single orange bar after the connection process has finished, the DAP-
X1870 has established a poor quality connection. The more lit bars on the Signal Indicator LED, the better the wireless signal. To
improve the connection quality, the DAP-X1870 should be relocated closer to the source wireless router. Using the 5 GHz
extension network is recommended in order to achieve the fastest wireless speeds. If the extender has been configured as an
Access Point and is connected via Ethernet cable to an uplink network, the Smart Signal LED will not be lit.
