extender.) When the connection is complete, the Wi-Fi Protected Setup 
light on the extender will be solid.

How to use Site Survey

Site Survey gives a snapshot of all neighboring access points and wireless 
routers within range of the extender.

To open the Site Survey page:

1.  Log in to the browser-based utility (see “How to access the browser- based 

utility” on page 5).

2.  Click the Wireless tab. Click the Site Survey page.

3.  Select—To connect to a wireless network, click the button next to the 

wireless network name (SSID) in the Select column, and click Connect.

4.  SSID—Displays the name of neighboring wireless networks.

5.  GHz—Displays the radio band (in GHz) of the neighboring wireless 

networks

6.  Signal Strength—Displays the relative position of the neighboring 

access points by indicating the power of the wireless signal received: 1 
bar= 20%,2 bars=40%, 3 bars=60%, 4 bars=80%, 5 bars=100%. If no bar is 
displayed, the extender is located too far away from the upstream access 
point. Try to keep the signal strength between 60% and 100% for optimum 
performance.

7.  Security—Displays the mode of security in use by the neighboring APs. If 

a network supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup, the Wi-Fi Protected Setup icon 
is also displayed.

To connect your extender with an access point or router in Site Survey, you 
will need to know the password or passphrase of the network on that device.

1.  Select the network name (SSID) that you want to repeat with your extender 

by clicking the corresponding button in the Select column.

2.  Click Connect. When prompted, enter the password or passphrase used to 

secure your wireless network. The type of security information required in 
this screen must match your access point or router’s wireless security settings.

3.  Click  Save Settings. Your extender wireless parameters should be 

configured. The wireless interface will restart, and the extender will 
connect to the access point or router you have chosen.
