      Extender location is the primary key to getting the best signal quality and most distance out of any extender. You might experience interference problems, for example: thick walls or floors, other electronic equipment or extender might be to far away from router...etc. Test until you find the best sweet spot somewhere mid way between your Primary Router and your Wifi device connecting to the extender. This will give you the best consistently solid signal quality from the extender.

      When your Extender is connected directly to your primary wireless router/modem by CAT5 cable, it can then be configured and used as an AP Access Point. When it's use as a Extender it extends your wifi network wirelessly as is shown in my video. For the long explanation and additional information, I suggest a Google search with keywords: what is a wifi access point.

      You most likely will need to perform a repeater reset by using the RESET button (press and hold for a REAL 12-14 seconds) while it's plugged into a wall outlet and power is on, then release the RESET button and go through the setup steps again as shown in my video. Also when setting it up double check that you are using the correct wifi password to connect to your router with the Extender during set up.

      I didn't show results intentionally. Why? Because they are virtually different for everyone. Here's the reason in a nutshell: Extender location is the primary key to getting the best signal quality, speed and most distance out of any extender not just this one. You might experience interference problems, cut offs, signal drops, low speeds: because of thick walls, floors, house construction materials used, metal roofs, non metal roofs, neighbors wifi channel overpowering your extenders network connectivity, other electronic equipment or extender might be to far away from router...etc. With any extender you will need to test best placement location until you find the best sweet spot somewhere mid way between your Primary Router and your Wifi device connecting to the extender. This will give you the best consistently solid speed and strongest signal quality from the extender to your wifi device.
