Question 2

How to extend WiFi range?

Accepted Answer

Some considerations include:Router Location: Aim for a central location without being right next to obstructions or excessive electronics that could cause interference.Wireless Dongles: Devices themselves need adequate Wi-Fi receivers. Built-in solutions are not always the best, so consider buying USB dongles for devices that support them. Some even come with antennas for improved signal strength.The best option is to use a wireless range extender that takes the signal from the router and extends it further with limited strength drop-off. Better performance can be found when combined with a good wireless dongle.

Question 3

How to setup TP Link extender

Accepted Answer

TP Link WiFi extender setup is one of the easiest things you can do. In most cases, thanks to WiFi Protected Setup (WPS), you just need to press two buttons.First, plug the TP-Link extender into the wall and press the power button. When the power light is green, head over to your router and press its WPS button. After a few seconds (don’t wait longer than 5 minutes), return to the extender and press its WPS button. The two devices are now immediately talking to each other.Occasionally, you may need to reconnect any devices to make use of the boosted signal. If your router doesn’t have WPS, you’ll need to go into the web panel or TP-Link app, and it should recognize your router. After that, you should be connected by logging in with its credentials.After that, the control panel lets you configure all other settings.
