Have you ever been in a situation where your WiFi extender shows a strong signal, but you are not able to access the internet? This is a common problem that occurs during the configuration of a WiFi repeater. It usually happens when we are in a hurry and do not pay attention to the configuration data.
In this blog post, we will guide you on how to solve this problem quickly. First, enter the configuration mode by entering the username and password ‘adminaccess’ and select the repeater mode. If your repeater detects wireless signals, the WiFi module is working correctly. However, if it does not detect your signal, try to search for the repeater closest to the WiFi network you want to repeat.
Select the WiFi network you want to repeat and check how a name appears for the new WiFi network. The name should be the same as the name of the original network but ends with a low bar and ‘ext’. You can modify this name, but avoid making it too long or having symbols or special characters that are not recognized later.
In the second field, write the password of the WiFi network to which you are going to connect. This password will also be the password of the new WiFi network. Avoid making this password too long or adding special symbols or characters. Bear in mind that if you make a mistake with your password, the repeater will not give you an error message.
If you are still unable to connect, focus on the issuing router above all. Check if it has any type of protection, such as IP or MAC filtering, has the DHCP service disabled, or some other configuration that prevents the connection of the repeater.
In conclusion, by following these steps, you will be able to connect to the new WiFi network and establish a connection with the internet. Remember to avoid rushing through the configuration process and paying attention to the details.
