N600 WiFi Range Extender
Description
From the Region menu, select the region in which you operate the extender.
Note:
If you purchased the extender in the United States or Canada, the selection
from the Region menu is North America. You cannot change this selection.
Specify if the Ethernet ports on the rear panel of the extender connect to the
2.4 GHz band or the 5 GHz band by selecting one of the following radio buttons:
•
2.4GHz. The Ethernet ports connect to the 2.4 GHz WiFi band. This is the
default setting.
•
5GHz. The Ethernet ports connect to the 5 GHz WiFi band.
In the Name (SSID) field, type a new name or use the name that the extender
assigns by default:
•
Existing network name. MyNetworkName
•
New extended 2.4 GHz network name. MyNetworkName_2GEXT
If more than one extender operates in your neighborhood, changing the SSID
makes it easier to identify the extenders.
From the Channel menu, select Auto for automatic channel selection or select an
individual channel.
Note:
You can change the channel if you have enabled FastLane Technology or
if the extender is not connected to the WiFi router. For more information about
FastLane Technology, see
page 61.
Note:
In some regions, not all channels are available. Do not change the channel
unless you experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data
transfers). If this happens, experiment with different channels to see which is the
best.
