11:00
Speaker 1
[DOWNWEIGHT] [silence]
12:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Usually, sir, for the setup, it's advisable or recommended to place the extender at least five feet within the main router or within the same room where the main router is so it will be easier for the extender to detect the Wi-Fi of your main router. You need to unplug this extender and then plug it near with the main router.
12:00

Speaker 1
Die take long times to connect to the network. It's still connecting. extender is having trouble connecting to why with a network. And rebooting a router. [silence] Yeah.
19:00
Speaker 2
Usually, sir will take 2 to 3 minutes. Okay, what you can do on that one, sir, you can restart your router, the main router. Turn off your main router, leave it off for at least three minutes, and then turn it back on. Once the router is back with internet connection, do one last reset with the extender, and then try to connect it back to the network, then do the set up. However, without one, sir, I cannot stay longer on the line because the device is already end of support. I can only send you an email step-by-step for how you can set it up as a 2.4.
