3. Setup Guide

The AOOEPU WiFi Extender offers a simple and quick setup process, primarily using the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button.

WPS Setup (Recommended):

1. Power On: Plug the WiFi Extender into an electrical outlet near your main router. Wait for the power indicator light to become stable.
2. Press Router WPS: Locate the WPS button on your main wireless router and press it. The WPS indicator on your router may start blinking.
3. Press Extender WPS: Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on the AOOEPU WiFi Extender. The WPS indicator on the extender will start blinking.
4. Connection Confirmation: Wait for a few moments. Once the connection is established, the signal strength indicators on the extender will light up, indicating a successful connection.
5. Relocate (Optional): You can now unplug the extender and move it to a location between your router and the WiFi dead zone. Ensure the signal strength indicators remain lit to confirm good signal reception from the router.

4. Operating Modes

The AOOEPU WiFi Extender supports multiple operating modes to suit various network requirements:

• Repeater Mode: Extends the existing WiFi coverage of your main router. This is the most common mode for eliminating dead zones.
• AP (Access Point) Mode: Converts a wired network connection into a wireless one. Ideal for creating a new WiFi hotspot from an Ethernet port.
• Router Mode: Functions as a primary router, creating a new private network. This mode is typically used when you don't have an existing router.

Connecting Wired Devices:

The extender is equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet port, allowing you to connect wired devices such as smart TVs, gaming consoles, desktop computers, or network printers directly to the extender for a stable wired connection.

5. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your AOOEPU WiFi Extender, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Placement: Place the extender in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and excessive moisture. Avoid placing it near large metal objects or appliances that may cause interference.
• Cleaning: Regularly wipe the exterior of the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Firmware Updates: Check the manufacturer's website periodically for any available firmware updates. Keeping the firmware updated can improve performance and security.
• Power Cycle: If you experience minor connectivity issues, try power cycling the extender by unplugging it from the outlet for 10 seconds and then plugging it back in.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your WiFi Extender, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Signal in Certain Areas:
  Solution: Relocate the extender to a position roughly halfway between your router and the area with poor signal. Ensure the signal strength indicators on the extender show a strong connection to your main router. Obstacles like thick walls can weaken signals.
• Frequent Disconnections:
  Solution: Ensure the extender is not too far from the main router. Check for potential interference from other electronic devices (e.g., microwaves, cordless phones). Try changing the WiFi channel on your main router.
• Setup Failure:
  Solution: Ensure your router supports WPS. If WPS fails, try a manual setup via a web browser (refer to the full digital manual if provided by manufacturer). Ensure you are pressing the WPS button on both devices within the specified time frame.
• Slow Speed After Extension:
  Solution: While extenders improve coverage, they can sometimes introduce latency. Ensure the extender is placed in an optimal location where it receives a strong signal from the router. Consider using the 5GHz band for devices that support it, as it generally offers higher speeds.
