After enable the repeater mode, you can click on “Wireless Network” and choose “Site Survey” to pick
one of the SSIDs you would like to retransmit its signal. (Please be noted that while using the repeater
mode, the throughput performance maybe nearly only half compare with Access Point mode. Because
the repeater needs to communicate with original AP and also the clients associate to the repeater at the
same time.)
Site Survey
After click on the “Site Survey” button, you can choose the Access Point you need to extend its range by
clicking on “BSSID” column. Then “Apply” the change to make sure system working properly with new
setting. After all the changes are made, you can check the “Connect Status” page to check current SSID
and link quality / signal strength. Some more information is available at that page.
