Setup

1. Powering the Device

The WiFi extender is powered via its USB interface. Insert the USB connector into any compatible USB power source. This can be:

• A USB wall charger (5V/0.5A recommended)
• A mobile power bank
• A USB port on a computer or laptop

Once powered, the device will typically show an indicator light (if present) to confirm it is active.

2. Configuration Modes

The extender supports two main operating modes: Bridge Repeater Mode and Router Repeater Mode.

Detailed configuration steps for each mode are typically accessed via a web browser interface. Please refer to the specific instructions provided with the device for accessing its web interface and configuring the desired mode. This usually involves connecting to the extender's default WiFi network (e.g., "WiFi-Repeater" or similar) and navigating to a specific IP address (e.g., 192.168.10.1) in your browser.

3. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)

The device supports WPS for quick and easy setup with compatible routers. If your router has a WPS button:

1. Plug in the WiFi extender near your router.
2. Press the WPS button on your router.
3. Within two minutes, press the WPS button (or activate WPS via the web interface) on the WiFi extender.
4. The indicator lights on both devices should show a successful connection after a short period.

If WPS setup fails, proceed with manual configuration via the web interface.

Operating

Extending Your WiFi Network

Once configured, the WiFi extender will broadcast an extended WiFi signal. You can connect your wireless devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets) to this extended network. The network name (SSID) of the extended network may be the same as your original network (in bridge mode) or a new one (in router mode), depending on your configuration.

For optimal performance, place the extender in a location that receives a strong signal from your main router and is also centrally located to the areas where you need extended coverage.

Security

The device supports WEP, WPA, WPA2, and WPA & WPA2 mixed encryption protocols. Ensure your extended network is secured with a strong password using WPA2 encryption for the best protection.

Maintenance

Firmware Updates

Periodically check the manufacturer's website for firmware updates. Firmware updates can improve performance, add new features, and enhance security. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware update carefully to avoid damaging the device.

Cleaning

Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols. Ensure the device is unplugged before cleaning.

Resetting the Device

If you encounter persistent issues or wish to reconfigure the device from scratch, you can perform a factory reset. The device has a reset button. Typically, you will need to press and hold this button for 5-10 seconds while the device is powered on. Refer to the specific instructions for your device model for the exact reset procedure.

Troubleshooting

• No Power Indicator Light: Ensure the USB connector is fully inserted into a working USB port or power adapter. Try a different USB power source.
• Cannot Connect to Extender's WiFi: Verify the extender is powered on. If you've changed the extender's WiFi name (SSID) or password, ensure you are using the correct credentials. Try resetting the device to factory defaults and reconfiguring.
• Weak or Unstable Extended Signal: Relocate the extender to a position between your main router and the desired coverage area where it can receive a strong signal from the router. Avoid placing it near large metal objects, microwaves, or other sources of interference.
• Slow Internet Speed: Ensure your main internet connection is stable and fast. The extender's speed is limited by the main router's speed. Check for interference. If using bridge mode, ensure the extender is receiving a strong signal from the main router.
• Configuration Issues: If you cannot access the web interface, ensure your device is connected to the extender's network and you are using the correct IP address. Clear your browser's cache or try a different browser. A factory reset may resolve configuration conflicts.
