• Change the encryption type of the router/modem to WPA-PSK or WPA2- PSK, and try again.

Q5: Unable to login repeater interface

A5: Confirm the situation is before or after the expansion.

a. Before the extension:

• Please confirm you have connected to the correct signal of the repeater. (The name of its wireless signal is attached to the product sticker)
• Confirm the domain name (re.rock space.local), or IP access (192.168.0.254) that entered in the address bar is correct.
• If you are unable to log in, please close the browser(but not just return) and open a new page to try again. If still failed, please wipe all the browser cache or reboot your mobile device.
• If all the solutions above are not working, we recommend that you can restore factory settings or recharging the plug in the socket, then try to connect and log in again.

b. After the extension:

There are two ways to deal with this problem:

Method 1:

• First, make sure that you have connected to the correct signal of the If the SSID of the repeater is the same as the superior signal (the router signal), you have to confirm you are connected to the signal of the repeater.
• Confirm the mobile device is connected to the original signal of the router.
• Then log in by this domain name: re. rock space. local.
• If failed, please cut off the power supply and reconnect the power supply. Then you log in by the domain name after the repeater extended automatical­
• If the last step above doesn’t work, please change to a laptop or a mobile phone to log in.

Method 2:

• First, make sure you have connected to the WiFi signal(no matter the router’s or extender’s) , and then login the interface of the router;
• Open the Client List of the router interface to view connected devices. After finding the mac address (that is attached to the product stick)of the repeater, you can get the IP address of the extender assigned by the router.
• Open a browser, enter the IP address in the address bar, and then you can enter the interface.

Q6: I can find someone else ‘s wifi signal, but I can’t find mine?

A6: • You need to check the signal strength that your mobile advice can get in the same place.(Maybe the signal in this place is poor)

• You should check if the encryption of the superior router is WEP. Only no encryption, WPA, WPA2, and mixed-mode can be supported by this repeater.
• Whether the superior signal is hidden; (You can check this by your mobile advice)

Q7: Always prompt for failure when extending.

A7: • 1. Check the indicator is blue/red/not bright(if the indicator is not bright, it means a failed matching).

• If you can’t find the superior signal when extending, please try the following solutions:

1. Set the SSID of the router and repeater to numbers and letters combination;
2. Move the repeater closer to the router;
3. Confirm the encryption mode of the superior signal is not WEP.(Only no encryption, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, or their mixed mode can be supported by our repeater).
4. Confirm the superior signal is not turned off or hidden.
5. Log in to the interface of the router to check if restrictions are made, such as MAC filter, Blacklist.
6. Confirm the password of the superior router you entered is correct. (The password entered in the extension process is the password for the superior router)
7. Modify the signal name and password for the superior router, and reset the repeater.
8.  If none of the above causes, please note your superior router model, repeater serial number, and use information. Then feedback to this
   e-mail: techsup­ port@rockspace.cc

Q8: The indicator is always flashing orange.

• A8: How to confirm a successful extension?

1. You can search the signal to see if there is a repeater factory SSID(If the SSID of the signal is still the factory setting, then it means a failed extension.)
2. Observe the exact color and status of the indicator by darkening the surround­ing.
3. Log in to the interface of the repeater to see if the extended state is expanded.

• If you are sure that the extension is successful, you can keep the antenna upward and parallel with the antenna of the router; If not, please replace its angle. You can put the repeater and router closer, and observe if the indicator gets solid blue.

Q9: No internet access after extension?

A9: • Confirm whether the extension is successful. (Judge by indicator and management interface)

• Disconnect the device without internet access, and connect again to see if it is available.
• To see if the superior signal strength is too low by repeater interface.(We recommend the repeater should be placed somewhere between 40%-50% of the signal strength.)
• When the signal of the repeater is connected, see if its SSID is assigned by
• Reset the repeater and try others WIFI signals.

Q10: The extended signal is poor?

• A10: Don’t put the repeater too close to the router.
• Place the repeater in the middle of the router and the farthest place you want to
• If you want to extend the signal in the horizontal direction, the repeater antenna is positioned upward, and parallel to the router. If it is for the duplex house, both the antennas of the repeater and router should be tilted and remain parallel.

Q11: Unable to connect the repeater signal after a while of a successful extension ?

• Al 1: Check on the interface for restrictions and blacklist.
• Clear cache of the extended signal, then reconnect.
• Reset the repeater and set it up again.

Q12: Sometimes repeater and mobile device will lose their connection after extension?

Al2: a. When the indicator turns no light, it means the repeater and router are disconnected.

• Please verify if any changes have been made.
• Enter the router interface to view the history, and check the status of the superior router.
• If the router is fine, judge the strength of the signal by the indicator’s color. You can adjust the location and direction of the repeater.

b. When the indicator is solid red

• Please check if the SSID of the repeater contains special characters or Chinese, we command you can set the SSID to an alphanumeric combination.

Q13: The network is not available after extension.

• A13: c heck if the indicator turns no light;
• If the indicator is red, but no network. To see if the superior signal strength is too low by repeater interface.(We recommend the repeater should be placed somewhere between 40%-50% of the signal strength.)
• Check if the IP that is connected to the devices is assigned by the router.

Q14: The network is slow after extension.

• A14: View the color of the indicator:

1. Solid blue: The signal strength received by the repeater is above -60db.
2. Solid red: The signal strength received by the repeater is above -61 dB–74db. (The signal is a little bit weak. It is recommended to move the repeater a little closer, and the repeater antenna is parallel to the router.)
3. Flashing orange: The signal strength received by the repeater is below -74db. (The signal is week. It is recommended to move the repeater closer, and the repeater antenna is parallel to the router. )

• Under the general situation, when the signal strength received by the repeater is between 40% and 79% (While the interface shows a signal with 2 bars), the repeater works best at this time.
• Check the network speed when your device connects the router directly at that

a. When the network speed between the router and repeater is the same, it means the connection is fine.(You can check the router.)

b. When the network speed is faster than that at the repeater, please check the following problems:

1.  Check the placement of the repeater, avoid putting it in the corner;
2. Check if the antenna of the repeater and router is paralleled,a paralleled antenna will be better for the connection.
3. If the above situation is excluded, please reset the repeater, and try to connect the repeater to the router again.
4. Reset the repeater.

Q15: After extension, it has a strong signal but low speed.

• A15: Check the color of the indicator:

1. Solid blue indicates a strong signal;
2. Solid red indicates a little weak signal;
3. Flashing orange indicates a very weak signal, it can’t afford a normal network need.

• It is recommended to put the repeater in a place where the superior is between 40% and 50%, and please keep the antenna upward.

Q16: Prompt a single frequency extended state after successful expansion:

• A16: To see if the signal is a hided signal, whether the encryption method is WPA or WPA2 or mixed encryption, whether with special symbols or modify the signal channel, then attempting to re-enter the Extender interface to try to expand;
• Whether the password of the signal extended unsuccessfully consistent with the extended signal, in this case, need to go into the Extender interface to expand
