I-4. Switch
The EW-7438AC includes a hardware slide switch
on the underside of the device which can switch
between normal, green mode and off as shown
in the table below. “Wi-Fi power” refers to the
strength of the extender’s wireless radio signal.
If you are using the extender in a small or
medium sized space, you may not need the full
power of the wireless radio. Try it, and determine
if you still have sufficient Wi-Fi coverage using
green mode. If so, you can save some energy.
Tx power works in conjunction with the Tx power setting in
the web-based configuration interface (Advanced
2.4GHz
Wireless/5GHz Wireless). The switch is the primary setting
and the Tx power value will be a percentage of the slide
switch setting. E.G If the slide switch is set to Green Mode
(25%) and Tx power to 75%, the overall output will be 75% of
25%.
