    Hey if Anyone Is Having Trouble Listen Up!!!!!!!!!
    Plug in the wifi extender beside your router (This is just for setup you can move after)
    and hold down wps button until it flashes
    Then click the wps button on your router. Once all the flashing stops they should be synced. Now the wifi that needed a password should be unlocked and you get sent into the setup portal. And after setup you can plug into where ever dead zone is affected. And product should work as intended I hope this helps.

    I bought this July 2023, worked like a charm. Switched telecommunications providers 4 days ago, so I had to reset this wifi extender. Once I reset the device I could not connect to either the 2.4/5G netoworks. It says "connected without internet." I threw out the old manual, didn't think I needed to keep it as the initial setup was easy. Judging by the comments here, it seems we're all experiencing issues with this device.

      @hakajawaka8135 Рік тому

      One of the reasons for that might be that you have your routers WIFI MAC Address whitelist turned on and you haven't included the virtual MAC address of the device you're trying to connect to the internet. . I was unable to get Internet access due to having my whitelist turned on (In other words, only devices that have their MAC address listed in the whitelist can connect to the router).
      If you turn the whitelist OFF you should see the internet light come on and have access to the internet through the extender. HOWEVER, the added security of using the MAC address whitelist filter will be disabled if you allow ALL MAC Addresses to connect to your router. I still have not been able to find what the virtual MAC address is for each device I want to connect to the extender and router.
