Boost Your Video Streaming With FastLane Technology

Get the most out of your HD entertainment with FastLane technology. With FastLane
technology, the extender connects to your router using one band and connects to your
devices using another band. Because a band is dedicated to each function, performance is
enhanced.
If all your devices and your WiFi router support only the 2.4 GHz band, or all your devices
and your WiFi router support only the 5 GHz band, do not enable FastLane Technology.
When you enable FastLane Technology, two options are available:
• Use the 2.4 GHz band to connect the extender to the WiFi-enabled devices and use the 5
GHz band to connect the extender to the WiFi router. Use this mode if your WiFi router
supports the 5 GHz band but the devices that you want to use for gaming and streaming
support the 2.4 GHz band.
• Use the 5 GHz band to connect the extender to the WiFi-enabled devices and use the 2.4
GHz band to connect the extender to the WiFi router. Use this mode if the devices that
you want to use for gaming and streaming support the 5 GHz band but your WiFi router
supports the 2.4 GHz band.

1. On your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device, open the WiFi connection manager
and locate and connect to the extender WiFi network.
