4. Operating Modes

The Aimery Speednet WiFi Extender supports two primary operating modes to meet various networking needs:

Repeater Mode

In Repeater Mode, the extender wirelessly connects to your existing router and amplifies its signal, extending Wi-Fi coverage to areas with weak or no signal. This mode is ideal for eliminating Wi-Fi dead zones and improving signal strength for wireless devices.

AP (Access Point) Mode

In AP Mode, the extender connects to your router via an Ethernet cable and transforms the wired connection into a new wireless network. This is useful for creating a new Wi-Fi hotspot in a specific area or for connecting wired devices to your network wirelessly.
