Connection help

Don't know if you are connecting via router or extender?
The easiest way is to compare the signal strength displayed on your device with the
extender switched on and off. The extender simply relays the data from your hub/
router. It's your device that controls which signal it connects to.
Can't connect extender to router
If the range lights continue to scroll add up and down for more than 1 minute after
connection attempt. Check your hub/router is switched on and try moving your
extender closer to it.
If the Too far and Too close (red) range lights continue to flash for more than
1 minute after connection. Reset extender to factory settings and try again.
If you are trying to use WPS but it doesn't work, it may be that it's incompatible
with the WPS function in the extender. In that case follow the steps for 'Connect to
router without WPS'.
Check you have selected the correct wireless network name.
Make sure you've entered the correct wireless key.
Can't connect to internet
