6. Modalità operative

Modalità ripetitore (predefinita)

In modalità ripetitore, l'extender si connette in modalità wireless al router esistente e amplifies its Wi-Fi signal, extending coverage to areas with weak or no signal. This is ideal for expanding your wireless network without running new cables.

Modalità punto di accesso (AP)

In AP Mode, the extender connects to your router via an Ethernet cable and creates a new wireless network. This is useful for converting a wired network connection into a wireless hotspot, providing Wi-Fi access in areas where only wired connections are available.

Access Point mode provides stable wired-to-wireless conversion.

7. Manutenzione

• Posizionamento ottimale: Place the extender halfway between your router and the Wi-Fi dead zone. Avoid physical obstructions like thick walls or large metal objects.
• Aggiornamenti del firmware: Regularly check the rockspace official websito per gli aggiornamenti del firmware per garantire prestazioni e sicurezza ottimali.
• Pulizia: Pulire delicatamente il dispositivo con un panno morbido e asciutto. Non utilizzare detergenti liquidi o spray.

8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Nessun potere: Ensure the extender is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check the PWR LED.
• Nessun segnale/Segnale debole: Relocate the extender closer to your main router. Ensure there are minimal obstructions between the router and the extender.
• Bassa velocità di Internet: This can be caused by interference, too many connected devices, or improper placement. Try adjusting antenna positions or moving the extender.
• Impossibile accedere Web Pagina di gestione: Ensure your device is connected to the extender's Wi-Fi network. Clear your browser's cache and cookies, or try a different browser.
• Password dimenticata: Perform a factory reset on the extender by pressing and holding the Reset button (usually a small pinhole) for about 8-10 seconds until the LEDs flash. This will revert all settings to factory defaults.
