  Hello,

  The ideal location to place the Extender is half-way between your wireless router and your computer, but the extender MUST be within the wireless range of the wireless router. Tip: If you have to use a different location, move the Extender closer to the device, but still within the wireless range of the router.

  Hello everyone,

   

  Resolution:

  1. Place the extender in the same room as the WiFi Router.
  2. Make sure you have a live internet connection coming from the main router. 
  3. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet and wait for the Power LED to become solid.
  4. Press and hold the WPS button for about 2 seconds on the side panel of the extender.
