How the Extender Works
The extender works like a bridge between a WiFi router (or a WiFi access point) and a
WiFi device outside the range of the WiFi router. The extender performs two main jobs:
•
The extender connects to a working WiFi network.
When the extender connects over WiFi to an existing network, it functions as a
network client, similar to how a WiFi device connects to a network.
•
The extender acts as an access point for WiFi devices.
The extender broadcasts its own WiFi network that WiFi devices can join. In its role
as an access point, the extender performs tasks that WiFi routers do, such as
broadcasting its network name (SSID).
The extender must do each of these jobs so that both ends of the bridge are in place.
