AP Mode

Introduction to AP mode setting: In order to facilitate management, this IP address and default gateway entered here should be the IP segment of the superior router, and the IP address cannot be the same as the superior, avoid IP confect with router. After the setting is completed, the WAN port of the device can access the external network through the set IP address Network to access the management device.

AP Mode Settings: AP Mode Settings: The setting method of AP Mode is the same as the repeater mode. After the setting is completed, connect the LAN port of the router and the network port of the WiFi Extender with a network cable to access the Internet.

Please note: After the AP mode setting is completed, the new WiFi name is the same as the default name of the WiFi extender. (If you have not changed the WiFi name) The WiFi password is the same as the password you entered during the setup process. When using AP mode, you must connect the WiFi extender and router with a network cable, otherwise you will not be able to access the Internet.

1. My WiFi says connected but I have no internet connection.

   • If the WiFi is connected, but there is no internet, check that the router’s WiFi is actively working and try to restart the router.
   • check the status of the WiFi indicator light. If it stays 0111, it means it is connected to the router successfully, and it might be more of an IP conflict. You can try to AP Mode so that the devices connected to both routers can interact with each other.
   • If the WiFi indicator light keeps flashing frequently, that means the connection failed, and you may have entered the wrong password. It could also be for some other reasons, so try to restore factory settings. To do that, press the WPS button for about 5-8 seconds. Set up the WiFi Extender again.

2. Why does the internet speed drop when connecting to the extender?

   • The Wifi Extender supports 2.4G networks and not SG.
   • The WiFi Extender is used to extend the range of your WiFi (which your main router WiFi can’t cover). It does not increase internet speed.
   • Sometimes, the signal (coverage or speed) drops due to external influences- – a microwave oven, nearby cell towers nearby, a neighbor’s WiFi on the same channel, walls, and partitions in a building made of certain materials blocking a WiFi signal.
   • Try the Extender in different positions: place it at different angles or locations for a better signal.

3. What is the user name and password for setting up the Extender?

   • After setting up, connect to the new WiFi name “router name_ Ext” The password is now the same as your WiFi main router.

4. Why are some devices at home (printer, CCTV camera, TV, iPhone) unable to connect to the Extender?
   

   • This means the device does not recognize the Extender.
   • The device should be in the same network as your router. You may set up the Extender in AP Mode to see if it will work.
     

5. How far should the Extender be from the router?

   • It should be between the router and the area with a good signal. The position must be able to receive a good WiFi signal from the router.
