Please read this guide carefully before installing and using the device. The operating distance range of your wireless connection can vary significantly depending on the physical position of the wireless devices. Factors that can weaken signals by getting in the way of your network’s radio waves are metal appliances or obstructions and walls. Typical ranges vary based on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or office.
● Less Interference - Choose a location away from Bluetooth devices and other household electronics, such as cordless phone, microwave, and baby monitor, etc., to minimize signal interference. WPS is an easier way to extend your host network. We recommend you to use this way if your host router has a WPS Place your extender in a well-ventilated place far from direct sunlight, any heater or heating vent. Leave at least 2 inches (5cm) space around the device for heat dissipation.
