4.1. Modalità ripetitore (predefinita)

In Repeater mode, the extender wirelessly connects to your existing router and amplifies its signal, extending coverage to areas with weak or no Wi-Fi. This mode is ideal for eliminating dead zones.

4.2. Modalità punto di accesso (AP)

In AP mode, the extender connects to your router via an Ethernet cable and transforms your wired network connection into a wireless access point. This is useful for adding Wi-Fi capability to a wired-only network or creating a new Wi-Fi network in a specific area.

4.3. Modalità router

In Router mode, the extender acts as a primary router, connecting directly to your modem via an Ethernet cable to create a new private wireless network. This mode is suitable if you do not have an existing router.

4.4. Using the Gigabit Ethernet Port

The integrated Gigabit Ethernet port (WAN/LAN) allows you to connect a wired device (like a desktop computer, smart TV, or gaming console) to the extender, providing a stable and high-speed internet connection. This port can also be used for AP or Router mode connections.
