What is a Wireless Extender?
The DAP-1520 acts as a repeater to extend the range of an existing wireless network to provide a better signal for parts of
your home or oce that may have poor or no reception. Your existing wireless signal will be re-broadcast by the DAP-1520,
allowing you to reach the farthest corners of your home or oce . The extended network can simply use the same network
credentials as the existing network, or you can specify a dierent network name and password, giving you the exibility to
control network access.
