Picking the best spot
The best spot for the repeater
is as far from the base as
possible while still
maintaining a good signal,
or near the edge of the
base's coverage area. To
find the edge of the
coverage area:
1.
Stand near the base
and make a call on the
handset.
2.
While on the call, carry a
handset away from the
base towards the general area where you want to put the repeater.
3.
Watch the signal strength icon on the handset. Make a note where
the icon drops from 4 bars to 3 bars.
4.
Continue walking away from the base. Make a note where the signal
strength icon drops from 3 bars to 2 or if you start to hear noise on
the line (which indicates the signal is getting weaker).
5.
Place the repeater anywhere inside the range where the signal
strength icon showed 3 bars and the handset had a clear signal with
no noise.
Testing the location
Connect the repeater's AC adapter and make sure the
comes on steadily. If the light flashes, the repeater is not getting a
good signal from the base. The repeater may be too far away from
the base, there may be interference from electronic devices, or the
signal might be blocked by thick walls or metal objects. Try moving
the repeater to another location.
