I. Introduction
Wifi is a wireless signal for data transmission. Via Wifi (sometimes referred to as
WLAN), you can connect your smartphone, tablet or PC to the internet. Wifi has
different speeds. The further you are from your Internet modem with Wifi, the slower
it gets.
To ensure that you can still have sufficient speed, or get a bigger range, you can use
this Wifi repeater. It is really important that the Wifi repeater is in the right place.
The Wifi repeater connects wirelessly to both your Internet modem and your
smartphone / tablet or PC. Normally Wifi is protected by a password, this is why you
have to set your Wifi repeater before you can use it.
II. Installation of the Wifi Repeater
See illustration I
Your current internet modem already has Wifi that has a certain range. At the edge of
the range of your existing internet modem, the speed is very low. In order to maintain
sufficient speed, we advise you not to install the Wifi repeater on the edge of the
range of your existing internet modem.

IV. Configuration of the Wifi Repeater
The Wifi repeater has many possibilities. We restrict ourselves to the functionality
of Wifi Repeater.
There is an instruction video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhIcmDcItt8
The Wifi repeater has a WPS button. With this button, you can automatically make
Wifi connections, without having to enter settings. It is necessary that the other
device (that you want to connect with) also has a WPS button.
1.
Connect the Wifi repeater to your Internet modem via WPS (go to point 2
if your internet modem does not have WPS)
a.
Plug the Wifi repeater into a power outlet near your Internet
modem (not too far away from your modem !) and wait 30 seconds
so the repeater can start up.
b.
Activate WPS on your internet modem (usually press the WPS
button for 3 seconds, consult the manual of your internet modem).
c.
Activate WPS on the Wifi repeater by pressing the WPS button for 7
seconds.
d.
The Wifi repeater will connect to the modem. This will take some
time, please wait 2 minutes.
2.
Connect the Wifi repeater to your internet modem without WPS
a.
Plug the Wifi repeater into a power outlet near your Internet
modem (not too far away from your modem !) and wait 30 seconds
for the repeater to start up.
b.
The Wifi repeater will need to know to which Wifi network it should
be connected and what the password is. Therefore, it is necessary
to set the Wifi. The Wifi repeater comes with a network cable. Plug
one side of the cable in the Wifi repeater and plug the other end
in your PC. You may need to temporarily disconnect the existing
internet cable.
c.
Go to 192.168.10.1 in your web browser (do not use Google, enter it
in the URL bar).*

f.
All available Wifi networks will be shown in a screen like the one
above.
g.
Select your network by clicking on the circle in the column 'Select'
and enter your password details.
h.
Click the 'Save-Apply' button (at the bottom). The settings are now
being saved, that is why the repeater will ask you to wait for 90
seconds. Afterwards you can remove the internet cable, and install
the Wifi repeater at the selected location.
* Type http://192.168.10.1 into the URL address bar in the top of your
internet window (do not type this into the Google search engine). The
settings screen of the repeater will only be visible when the repeater is
not yet set-up. If you don't receive a settings screen, you have to reset
the repeater:
a.
Put the repeater in a power outlet and wait 1 minute
b.
Press the reset button at the bottom of the device for 10 seconds
c.
Wait 2 minutes.
3.
Connect your laptop, mobile phone or tablet to the Wifi repeater
a.
You can now insert the Wifi repeater in the selected power outlet.
Once again, wait 2 minutes after insertion.
b.
Search for new Wifi connections from your mobile device, e.g.
laptop, phone or tablet. Your Wifi modem has a name, for example
'Janssen'. The name of the Wifi repeater will be 'Janssen-Ext'.
c.
The password is the same as the Wifi password on your internet
modem.**
** If your device (smartphone, tablet) can connect to the repeater, but
doesn't get access to internet, a certain setting might be wrong. The
repeater automatically detects the settings from your internet modem for
AES and TKIP, but some modems are not compatible with this automatic
detection. Reset the repeater:
a.
Put the repeater in a power outlet and wait 1 minute
b.
Press the reset button at the bottom of the device for 10 seconds.
c.
Wait 2 minutes.
Type http://192.168.10.1 into the URL address bar in the top of your
internet window and log in with admin / admin.
Click on 'Site Survey', select your network, and enter your password.
Then change the setting for TKIP and AES (e.g. TKIP off, AES on or
different) and click 'Apply'.
4.
Connect an end device to the Wifi repeater using WPS
a.
End devices are e.g. PC, mobile phone, tablet or IP camera. Activate
WPS on the end device according to the manual of the device.
b.
Press the WPS button on the Wifi repeater for 3 seconds.
c.
The devices will now connect. After about 2 minutes, the connection
works.
I may have set the Wifi repeater wrongly, and I want to change the settings.
Answer: You need to reset the repeater. There is a small button in the case of the
repeater (at the bottom of the unit).
a. Plug the repeater in a power outlet and wait 1 minute
b. Press the reset button for 10 seconds. All LEDS's except the power LED will
turn off.
c. After 2 minutes, the repeater is completely reset.
I have connected the Wifi repeater by WPS with the internet modem, but
cannot log on or don't get a ....-ext network.
Answer: Some internet modems do have a WPS button, but that is deactivated or
equipped with a different password. In that case, you need to set the connection
between Repeater and internet modem according to chapter IV, part 2.
I want to setup the repeater with my PC, but I cannot connect using the LAN cable.
Answer: You need to plug one side of the LAN cable in the repeater, and the
other side of the cable in the PC. This connection needs to be directly, no
device in between. If the repeater was set-up before, you first need to reset the
repeater. Also, your PC needs to be set to 'Obtain IP address automatically'.
This is commonly the case. If your PC is set to a fixed IP address or Proxy,
you need to set your PC temporarily to 'Obtain IP address automatically.' This
setting can be found here: 'Start'- 'Control Panel'- 'Network'- 'Adapter Settings'
– 'LAN connection' – 'Properties' – 'Internet Protocol version 4 (IP / IP4)'. Write
down the current settings and then choose 'Obtain IP address automatically'
and 'OK'. After the repeater is set up, you need to enter the original settings.
*** Depending from your Windows version, some options may have a different
name, e.g. 'Network center' instead of 'Network'.
My repeater is setup, but I cannot access internet with my phone or tablet
This looks like the IP address information is not sent through the repeater. You
have to change some settings in the repeater.
You can configure the repeater via the PC by following the steps described below :
a.
Plug the wireless repeater into a power outlet (near the Internet modem) ,
wait 1 minute, press the RESET button for 10 seconds and wait 2 minutes.
b.
Plug the cable into the repeater and connect the other end of the cable to the PC.
c.
Use Internet Explorer to navigate to http://192.168.10.1 .
d.
Sign in with name / password : admin / admin .
e.
You will now see a screen showing the parameters of the repeater. Click
"Site Survey" and select your network.
f.
You see the boxes TKIP and AES . Probably , these settings are not correct .
Change the settings for TKIP and AES (eg TKIP "OFF" AES "ON" or both "ON").
g.
Enter the password and confirm the settings. Wait 2 minutes.
Normally, you should now successfully connect to the Internet .
Make sure you firstly place the Wifi repeater near the Internet modem and
afterwards plug it into a distant power outlet.
If still unable to connect to the Internet, you are advised to change the security type
of your modem and update to latest software version of your internet modem.
My VPN (virtual private network) is not working with the Wifi repeater.
Answer: The repeater does not support VPN.
My internet connection is not with a normal modem with Wifi and wired
connection, but have installed separate components such as modem, router,
Wifi-router or access point and more. The Wifi repeater is not working.
Answer: The Wifi repeater is designed for standard internet connections with a
integrated modem / Wifi box. You may have a problem because of IP NAT. Please
use a integrated modem / Wifi box or reconfigure your network.
