Opsætningsinstruktioner

The PRFGKO WiFi Extender offers two primary methods for setup: WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) and Web Interface/App Configuration.

Metode 1: WPS (Wi-Fi-beskyttet opsætning)

WPS provides a quick and easy way to connect your extender to your existing router without needing to enter network passwords manually. Ensure your router supports WPS.

1. Tilslut forlængeren: Insert the WiFi Extender into a power outlet near your main router. Wait for the power indicator light to become stable.
2. Press Extender's WPS Button: Locate the WPS button on the PRFGKO WiFi Extender (often labeled "WPS" or with a WPS icon) and press it. The WPS indicator light on the extender should start blinking.
3. Press Router's WPS Button: Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your main WiFi router. Refer to your router's manual for the exact location of its WPS button.
4. Vent på forbindelse: The extender's WPS indicator light should become solid, indicating a successful connection. The signal strength indicator lights will illuminate to show the connection quality.
5. Flyt extenderen: Once connected, unplug the extender and move it to a location between your router and the area with weak WiFi signal. Plug it into a power outlet. Ensure the signal strength indicator lights show a good connection to the router.

Metode 2: Web Interface / App Configuration

This method provides more control over settings and is recommended if your router does not support WPS or for advanced configurations.

1. Tilslut forlængeren: Insert the WiFi Extender into a power outlet near your main router. Wait for the power indicator light to become stable.
2. Opret forbindelse til extenderens netværk: On your computer or mobile device, connect to the WiFi network broadcast by the extender. This network will typically have a name like "WiFi Repeater" or similar, without requiring a password initially.
3. Adgangsopsætningsside: Åbn a web browser and enter the default IP address or domain name provided in the quick start guide (e.g., http://192.168.1.1 or a specific domain). You may be prompted to log in with default credentials (e.g., username: admin, password: admin).
4. Vælg repeatertilstand: Follow the on-screen instructions. Select "Repeater Mode" to extend your existing WiFi network.
5. Vælg dit netværk: The extender will scan for available WiFi networks. Select your main router's WiFi network (SSID) from the list.
6. Indtast adgangskode: Enter the password for your main router's WiFi network. You may also have the option to set a new SSID and password for the extended network.
7. Komplet installation: Confirm your settings. The extender will restart. Once restarted, the signal strength indicator lights will show the connection quality.
8. Flyt extenderen: Unplug the extender and move it to a suitable location between your router and the area needing extended coverage. Plug it into a power outlet. Verify signal strength indicators.

Operating Modes and Usage

The PRFGKO WiFi Extender supports multiple operating modes to suit various networking needs.

Repeater-tilstand

I repeatertilstand opretter extenderen trådløs forbindelse til din eksisterende router og amplifies its signal, extending coverage to areas with weak or no signal. This is the most common mode for home use.

• Udvidet dækning: Ideal for eliminating WiFi dead zones in larger homes or offices.
• Nem opsætning: Can be configured via WPS or web interface.

Access Point (AP) tilstand

In AP Mode, the extender connects to your router via an Ethernet cable and creates a new wireless network. This is useful for converting a wired network connection into a wireless one.

• Wired to Wireless: Converts a wired internet connection into a private WiFi hotspot.
• Stabil forbindelse: Provides a more stable connection as it uses a wired backhaul to the main router.
• Ethernet-port: The device features an Ethernet port for this purpose.

Optimal placering

For best performance, place the extender in a location that receives a good signal from your main router and is also close to the area where you need extended coverage. Avoid placing it too close to the router (no extension) or too far (no signal to extend).

Opretholdelse

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your WiFi Extender.

• Firmwareopdateringer: Kontroller jævnligt producentens webwebsted for firmwareopdateringer. Opdatering af firmware kan forbedre ydeevnen, tilføje nye funktioner og rette sikkerhedssårbarheder.
• Rensning: Hold enheden ren og fri for støv. Brug en blød, tør klud til at tørre ydersiden af. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller aerosoler.
• Ventilation: Ensure the extender is placed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Do not cover ventilation openings.
• Miljøforhold: Undgå at udsætte enheden for ekstreme temperaturer, fugt eller direkte sollys.
• Power Cycle: If you experience intermittent issues, try power cycling the device (unplug it from the power outlet, wait 10 seconds, then plug it back in).

Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your PRFGKO WiFi Extender, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

• No Power / Indicator Lights Off:
  • Ensure the extender is securely plugged into a working power outlet.
  • Prøv en anden stikkontakt.
• Cannot Connect to Extender's WiFi Network:
  • Sørg for, at forlængeren er tændt.
  • If setting up via web interface, ensure you are connecting to the extender's default network (e.g., "WiFi Repeater") before configuration.
  • Try resetting the extender to factory defaults (see "Resetting the Extender" below).
• Svagt signal eller hyppige afbrydelser:
  • Flytning: The extender might be too far from your main router or too close to it. Relocate the extender to a position roughly halfway between your router and the WiFi dead zone. The signal indicator lights should show a strong connection to the router.
  • Interferens: Avoid placing the extender near large metal objects, microwave ovens, cordless phones, or other devices that can cause interference.
  • Forhindringer: Walls, floors, and ceilings can degrade signal. Try to minimize the number of obstacles between the router, extender, and your devices.
  • Problemer med routeren: Ensure your main router is functioning correctly and providing a stable signal.
• Internet Access Issues After Setup:
  • Bekræft, at din primære router har en aktiv internetforbindelse.
  • Ensure you entered the correct WiFi password for your main router during setup.
  • Prøv at genstarte både din router og extender.
  • If using AP Mode, ensure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the extender and the router.
• Resetting the Extender:

  If you forget your login password or encounter persistent issues, you can reset the extender to its factory default settings. Locate the small reset button (often recessed) on the device. Use a paperclip or a thin object to press and hold the button for approximately 5-10 seconds until the indicator lights flash. The extender will restart with default settings, and you will need to reconfigure it.
