Troubleshooting

Extender not connecting to the router.

Ensure the extender is within range of your router. Try restarting both the router and the extender. Make sure that the WPS button is pressed on both devices in a timely manner. If WPS fails, try the alternative setup method.

Slow Wi-Fi speeds after setup.

Check the signal strength in the area. Try repositioning the extender. Ensure no other devices are interfering with the signal (e.g., microwaves). Check your internet speed.
