The first step when setting up a range extender is simply to decide whether you want to buy a compact model that plugs directly into a mains power socket, or a larger model that will need to sit on a desk or shelf. The plug-in models are really convenient, although a desktop model may have additional features, such as Ethernet ports, which can come...
Regardless of which room you plan to use it in, you’ll start the set-up process with the range extender being plugged in and sitting as close as possible to your main router. Modern routers and range extenders now have a WPS button (‘Wi-Fi Protected Set-up’) that creates a two-minute window in which the two devices can connect to each other without...
Before you launch the extender’s app, just go into the Wi-Fi Settings panel on your smartphone or tablet. Our normal router is called 0606 Hyperoptic, and you can see that it transmits Wi-Fi on both the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands. You can also see that the range extender is transmitting its own wi-fi signals - again on the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands - ca...
Now that we’ve connected our smartphone to the range extender, we can launch the TP-Link app. Most manufacturers will ask you to enter an email address and password in order to create a private account. The app will then scan the area and show all the other Wi-Fi networks that it has detected. The app will probably start with the 2.4GHz band, and y...
The app now asks you to enter the password for your router’s 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. This allows the range extender to connect its own 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal to the 2.4GHz signal of our main router. You’ll also need to repeat the process for the 5GHz band as well. Once this is done, the range extender is linked to the router on both Wi-Fi bands, and thi...
This is where things can get a little confusing. At the start of the set-up process, the range extender’s Wi-Fi network was called TP-Link_Extender on both the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands. But now that the range extender is linked to our router, the app changes the name of the range extender Wi-Fi to use the same name - 0606 Hyperoptic - as our router’...
That’s a bit confusing, but the app does allow you to change the name of the range extender network to something that’s easier to remember. Let’s keep it simple by calling it 'Range Extender 2.4GHz' and 'Range Extender 5.0GHz'. Just remember, though, that the range extender is still siting right next to our router, so it’s now time to unplug the ra...
Now take a look at the range extender’s app. At the moment, we’ve got the range extender positioned about halfway between our main router and our home office where the Wi-Fi signal tends to be a bit weak. However, the app is telling us that there’s a very good connection between the router and the range extender, so we can still move the range exte...
If we go back to our smartphone’s Wi-Fi Settings panel, we can now see that we have two distinct networks - the main router (0606 Hyperoptic) on both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands, and the Range Extender network, which is also on 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands. If you move into a room that can’t pick up the Wi-Fi from the router then you can switch to the Range...
Switching between networks isn’t too much problem for a single device, such as a laptop that may spend most of its time in a bedroom or office. However, it can be a bit of a chore with smartphones and tablets that move around a lot more. Some of the more expensive range extenders - such as Netgear’s new EAX80 model - can eliminate this problem by m...
