FAQs

This section provides answers for difficulties you might experience with the extender.
The web browser setup guide keeps asking me for my network password (passphrase)
or security key, and I am sure that I entered the correct password. What can I do?
The extender is probably placed at the borderline of the range covered by the router or
access point. To improve your signal strength, move your extender closer to your router and
make sure that the 2.4GHz or 5GHz Link Rate LED lights solid amber or green.

with an Ethernet cable?

extender mode. If the extender is in access point mode, you can connect it to the router or
access point with an Ethernet connection.

settings, and then set it up again.
