This LED indicates the connection between the extender and the router.| Solid blue| Best connection
Solid red| Poor connection.
Off| No connection.

Method 1: Connect to an Existing WiFi Network with Web Browser Setup

1. Place the Extender and Apply Power
   Place your extender in the same room as your WiFi router. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet. Wait for the Power LED to light blue.

2.  Extend Your WiFi Network
   1. Use a WiFi network manager on your client devices, such as a computer or WiFi device, to and connect to the “rockspace_EXT ” (SSID) WiFi network. Ensure that the Mobile Data is disabled.
   2.After the connection with your client device is established, the setup page will automatically pop up. If the setup page doesn’t pop up automatically, you will need to launch a web browser and enter 192.168.0.254 to get started. In the Password field, type the password
   that you wish to use to log into the management interface.
   Note: The password you entered in this step is NOT the password for your extended network, it is the password for the extender’s management interface.3.P7FFrhb3HxcuvsvkjoFAdiVQCR1QxmSr964. In the password field, type the password for the existing WiFi network you previously selected. The SSID of the extended network can be modified, otherwise, it will remain the same as that of the existing network you chose to extend. Wait for the page to display a list of WiFi networks, connect your client device to the new extender WiFi network.
   Note: The password for the extended network you entered in step 4 should be the same as the password for your existing WiFi network.

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 supporter by this repeater.
• Whether the superior signal is hidden; (You can check this by your mobile advice)

Q9: No internet access after extension?
A9:

• Confirm whether the extension is successful. (Judge by indicator and management interface)
• Disconnecting the device without internet access, and connect again to see if it is available.
• Check the router signal strength, if the router signal strength is too low, the extender has hardly extended the signal and doesn’t have internet access.(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 router.

• Check the extender signal is connectted to the correct router.

Q14: The network is slow after extension.
A14:

• View the color of the indicator:
  ① Solid blue: The signal strength received by repeater is above -60db.
  ② Solid red: The signal strength received by repeater is above -61db~-74db.
  (The signal is a little bit week. It is recommend to move the repeater a little closer, and the repeater antenna is parallel to the router.)
  ③ No light: The signal strength received by repeater is below -74db. (The signal is week. It is recommend to move the repeater closer, and the repeater antenna is parallel to the router. )

• Under general situation, when the signal strength that received by 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 connect the router directly at that position.
  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 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 week signal;

• It is recommend to put the repeater in the 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 it.
