Troubleshoots 1. How to find out the suitable location for my E300? The location that you choose must be within the range of your existing WIFI router network. Use the WLAN LEDs to help you choose a spot where the extender-to-router connection is optimal. If only the WLAN LED 1 & 2 lit, plug the extender into an outlet closer to the router and try again. Keep moving the extender to outlets closer to the router until all 3 WLAN LEDs lit.
2) If you are using the computer/laptop to setup the E300, and the E300 has been reset into its default setting ever before. Please clear the browser caching & wait around half of minute. Or you can change another browser to try, refresh several times. We recommend you using the smartphone to setup the E300, that would be less effected by your internet environment setting. 3.
