WiFi repeater setup on mobile

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 เม.ย. 2019
- A friend of mine had problem with WiFi range at home so she decided to get a cheap repeater to extend the range of her WiFi router. Unfortunately, this WiFi repeater is a typical no name so let's just call it The Repeater. All the details of the repeater and first test setup in the video.

I wasn't automatically directed to that browser page shown at 3:34 - So I typed in the IP address shown in the video 192.168.10.1/index.htm and it got me straight through. It's worth pointing that bit out as some people may not get automatically routed to that repeater login page.
Thank you Very hard. Comment pinned
@@BuyOrBuyNot123 No worries. Very helpful video anyway.

For anyone struggling to set theirs up:
This device will connect to the router but it will not relay the connection if you mess with the IP range! You can change the subnet for the device - eg. if it's factory settings are 192.168.10.1, then changing the device IP to 192.168.11.1 will work fine but 192.168.10.2 will not. Go figure.
It said to put pin in where's the pin number please
kathy O'Brien mine says that aswell
Great clip - been struggling for ages, all sorted now! Thank you
I just shot a video, a couple of weeks ago, about a different repeater th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I'll be shooting more videos about routers in foreseeable future. I am happy that I was helpful.
Nice 👍🏾 video !! I prescribed !!! The view of your rear garden ? Side is very nice !!!! all green and quiet atmosphere !!
Thank u very, Very hard ;)
I've been trying all morning to find something I could use a reference to reset and change the password on my repeater. This video did it. thanks very much.
Happy 2 help. All best mate
Thank you. Super helpful video.
thank you for this finally got ours sorted and connected !
Glad it helped. I am here to help ;)
Thank you very much. This helped me to set mine up.
All best or better mate. I am happy to B helpful.
Thanks, I was just given one w/out the user manual so this is interesting.
Me too! Would LOVE to get a copy of those directions!

Thank you, I just made made a video about a different repeater today th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Hooked me right up.
BEST on the net...thx for your help!
Thank you, I am very happy when I help people.
@@BuyOrBuyNot123 and we're grateful for your good insight, and by the way yiu had a follow up video about this product?
Can you please send me a link with that!🙏?
Much obliged!🙏
Thank you for this. I am actually a software developer but I really loathe things like this because the instructions are usually not great. In my case I was confused by the instructions because they only envisage connecting from a computer, whereas many will be (as you and I did) using a mobile phone to do it. Also at no point whatsoever was I able to connect by IP (stated in the instructions as 192.168.10.1. However after resetting I saw what you saw in my phone's list of available networks and went from there. The available networks were also not visible (just a spinning wheel) in the Repeater configuration page until I did a reset of the device using the small button.
I've done a bit of s/w development and I find poorly written instruction manuals extremely frustrating. For example I have a sewing machine I am having trouble getting set up because the manual is terrible. I have written hundreds of programs, and I can replace the timing belt on my Honda, but I can't get a sweing machine to work, lol.
Hey could you tell me how to reset this device though? I ain't able to connect to it, neither is the repeater website working.
this man helped me so much thankyou my boy
No problem mate, here to help
What do you do if it doesn't help you set it up, but takes you to a menu screen for various things. Im not sure what to do after that.
thanks very helpful keep up the good work
Thank you I 'll do my best. 100% all the time ;)
@BuyorBoyNot is there a way to set a 2.4 ghz connection with this repeater?
Can somebody tell me if I need to plug my repeater to my computer with a wire, of if I have to plug it to something else (a router for example....) or if I don't have to plug it at all, and leave it the way it is in the outlet. Yes I'm confused!!! Thanks!!!
veryy helpful thank you
@ BuyOrBuyNot is there a way to set 2.4 ghz connection with this repeater
Do you get higher speeds if you connect a LAN cable?
Can we disable DHCP from this Repeater ? sometime my laptop got IP from main router, sometime got different IP from this Repeater (sometimes make internet disconnected)
.
Is this wifi thing any good plan on getting one
My current is Netgear nighthawk AC1900 R6900 Router does 1,800Square foot my isp Bravado Wireless
in repeater mode does it create its own NAT?
Thank you
Happy 2 help
Hi nice video, followed it through mines all set up now.
Just one thing, do my wireless devices need connecting to the repeater or the modem? For they both show up on wifi screen now.
I will make a video about repeaters sooner of later explaining all of the features. Your mobile for example should automatically select the device with stronger signal. So you can technically log into two networks and your mobile phone should use the best one.
Thanks
So if i understand this correctly, 🤔
I log on to my router using any device (all do this automatically) then walk away from the house like yourself in the video, until the signal weakens.
Then by chance I come across my repeater plugged into a socket at the end of my drive, 😃 the device I'm using should then switch automatically to the repeater (if the signal is a stronger)?
Thanks for your patience I'm old and from the days of black n white tv👴🏻
For anyone struggling to set theirs up:
This device will connect to the router but it will not relay the connection if you mess with the IP range! You can change the subnet for the device - eg. if it's factory settings are 192.168.10.1, then changing the device IP to 192.168.11.1 will work fine but 192.168.10.2 will not. Go figure.
Thank you very hard for all d tips.
I cannot pin two comments so I will add yours as a reply to the one that is pinned.
I "think" mine is set up. It's an Repeater only. Do i have to now move all my devices over to the "new" network name?
@@GabMag11 i connect every device to both networks so that losing one signal just causes it to switch to the other. if your devices aren't moving just connect them to whichever signal is strongest
Yes, this is the way to go. Your mobile or laptop should automatically set for the strongest signal.
Thank You
No problem mate. Please remember that I made this very review a couple of years ago. And this particular equipement is outdated.
Hi all, and thanks for the video, it was very helpful. Just wanted to ask about the password that the new wlan asks for, I cannot connect to it. Isn’t it suppose to be the same psw as the main one from the router? Thanks in advance 😊
Thank you bro
No problem mate
Ty so much
No problem mate here to help
Would you happen to know how to set up a 2nd repeater on the same main router? Thx.
Exactly the same as with one. There is no problem there your router would simply use it as another device connected to it that's it.
Same way
Thanks for the info, but you could definitely shave the length down of this video. The first 3 minutes are not really necessary.
Let me ask...could u use multiple extenders in your house?
Hi, do you ever try to update the firmware? If yes, where do you download the firmware update?
I did not try that, any interesting addons???
Is it a must that u do a factory reset on the device? New or not?!
Is there a way to configure in bridge mode and connect an Ethernet cable only printer onto the WiFi, with a WiFi network address, and is able to receive broadcasts. This is needed for Airprint to work on my printer
Robert, as far as I know you can use this device as an access point so you plug LAN cable in and then you can bradcast you internet or intranet. But if you can do what you wrote I am not sure, sorry.
How do you set it up with the wps?
Where did that strip come from?.
Hello may you help me
Why does my show “No internet” after the whole setup
Got this for 5 dollars on aliexpress and it’s amazing 🤩
Really?🤔
@@leonardofuentes2592 yes it was 11:11 sale, i think it’s still up for 6-7 dollars, it automatically directs you to the website and all to set it up, i named it same as my wifi router and also added the same password, now it works like a roaming device, it’s been over a month and this thing is working flawlessly
Me too but it’s not working on my iphone and idk why.
Can't get mine to work with an outdoor surveillance camera. I have other outdoor cameras that work fine on my regular wifi signal.
Where did that plug come from? I got no cable and it won’t connect to any plug I have
When it is connected does the WiFi lite flash or stay on steady?
My video describes rare case where you need to manually set the connection up, but did you try WPS authentication to begin with like in my other video? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
One question is it normal that it then hides the old router
For some reason the old one isnt then available
Great video, although the outside cases of these devices vary, it seems at the heart they are the same or very similar. So it's a one size fit's all video solution. Cheers!
Yes there are newer models, just check the date under the video. I know that the same device can run 5 GHz where the one in the video does only 2.4 GHz.
Many thanks, but once you've got it to connect by this method, how many green light to you expect to see on the repeater ?
I am terribly sorry but the repeter belonged to a friend of mine and is well gone I have no access to it but did you watched my other video about a repeater did you try WPS authentication???? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
So I have a Apple iPhone and I wanted to connect to it but it needed a network password but I didn’t know it and when I went on my computer to put the url in it didn’t work
Worked fine for a couple of months but now it's disconnecting a lot. Tried resetting but still same issue, please comment if anyone faced the same issue, any root cause and how were you able to fix it?
You look like James Murray from the show impractical jokers. 😂
Carl Pilkinkton looks like me.
Can some tell me, can I send a wi fi singnal with LAN cable to other device?
I do not fully understand the question, you want to get a repeater to get internet form the rounter and plug another device via LAN yes???
Is this good for gaming
I have this repeater when connected through Wi-Fi the signal strength is low but if you connect your PC to repeater using Ethernet cable the speed is high ping is 20 download speed is 391mbps download speed is 451mbps
Yeah it's trash :(
I would like to read the actual instructions because I’m having trouble.
I got a new router/SSID and need to reset my extender. I don’t have the original instructions anymore that came in the box.
Can you please scan your instruction’s paper a pin a link to the scanned file?
I’m unable to connect with WPS and don’t understand how to log into the extender and complete the screen because I don’t understand the field mapping nomenclature. Thank you!
Did you watch the video?
Do you happen to know is this device name Tecnomen Oy? Bcs when I scan all devices on my network this name pops up but it is unknown to me.
What is the difference between the 2 versions AP or Repeater. I am having issues with wireless in my house. The internet router is at the back of the house. I like to sit in the lounge at the front. My Internet provider says that the walls are blocking the signal. They wont fix it. So I need to work something out. How will it extend the range, if it is plugged in at the back near the internet?
Rowena Cranmer Try going to your router gateway and setting up a 5Ghz network.
Get this thing, it is better. th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html find a good spot for it a couple of meters from the router in a spot where u stil get good signal.
5GHz has even worse wall and obstacle penetration watch my other video bout a different repeater th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I'm about 2 years too late, but the best bet would be to lay cat6 cables in the ceiling then into a repeater where you want to use the wifi.
Do you know how to change the NAT type on this
Sorry i do not, I don't have it anymore I have this one but I did not try to change NAT type on the otherone th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
Hello, helpful video! But I am struggling a bit, when I type in the link, it doesn't take me to the log in for the repeater. What can I do?
Did you try WPS authentication like in this video??? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I bought this hoping just to get a better wifi signal on my phone in another room,will it do this ..im a complete novice would l just set up as you showed and press access point AP as opposed to pressing repeater
Try WPS authentication as in this video th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
It works tnx
Happy to help
Were can I download this manual
you state user and pass is printed o device but i cant find on mine
It allows me to connect to the repeaters wifi network but no internet access?
Read the manual properly you have to set the repeater to the main router with its generic password and device name. Did you try using WPs autentication it shoud be the easiest way to connect to your router. Just press WPS authentication on your router and then on your repeater. Here is link how to perform that, let me know how it went th-cam.com/video/WZaIfyvERcA/w-d-xo.html
having same problems as Cotronixco.What is the answer please?
I did not understand the question
How did you get the green dialogue box which appears at 3:34 in the video? When I clink on the REPEATER in my list, nothing opens on phone or laptop? Could you please help?
Did you try WPS authentication like in this video? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I'm on d way now, let me know how it went and then I will try to assist you.
Good
How do you connect to tv?
How we will order that
Cant seem to find my wifi icon on computer, Im also having trouble setting this up, I cant seem to notice any difference although Im not sure how you actually see anything that tells you its actually working??? Puzzled really>???got in touch with suppliers for help and even these instructions don't really make any
sense at all especially when I asked them to explain how we can see a difference or notice anything!!!!???? Complete mystery to me start to finish now removed it and noticed no difference !!!!
Has to be wireless not wired
@@evanbrock6335 It is WIRELESS, just plug in, thats what I have done but all problems above still same, and how does one know its actually doing anything at all???

did you try WPS authentication like in this video??? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
Hi, set goes well but I get the message 'No Internet, secured' when I connect. Is there something I need to do to allow internet connection?
I do not know the specification of you Wi-Fi router, did you try to set the WPS authentication instead of setting the connection manually like in this vidoe My video describes rare case where you need to manually set the connection up, but did you try WPS authentication to begin with like in my other video? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html ?
how can I enable upnp with it?
can you get me the software for this wifi repeater please
I am very sorry but it should be plug and play device there is no software that you would need for it.
I having trouble when it comes to blinking the wps

Nice
Thanks
I need help like it saying that my repeater is not and the internet is not working for me to I just need help that be so cool
I ordered just one 36.$ they added one more making total 67 $ and change... I did watch your video...I did everything....didn't work with my internet in fact my internet is so messed up now...I sent it back and called the number. They said I'd have to repay a return stock . So for those out there you will only get 58$ back.... the advertising I saw when I googled no mention of a restock fee... in fact the ad said full refund if it doesn't work....
So as I just proved in the previous comment u are a victim of scammers they sent you product worth 5 dollars you pay 50 then request return and they charge you 10 dollars. so thechnically speaking they earn 100% commisions without selling you anything, they can sell the repeaters again. The device works by the way. It is highly possible that you have problem simmilar to this one th-cam.com/video/n54-eEvoMpg/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Vox
So it seems, I generally take what people are saying....I miss the old days when a person's word was gold....thanks for your time, have a great pre morning?...it's 3am here...😴😴
10 in d morning here in rainy Ireland. All best, stay safe and hopefully you will not get scammed ever again. ;)
Got the adapter on at last, excited now.
Whoops what am I doing wrong cannot get the IP address keeps coming up timeout, a costly lesson for me
I do not understand d comment. Describe your issue in detail I will try to help.
Will not connect
Same issue. Eveytime I open a browser and type in 192.168.10.1 the browser will time out. The admin page will refuse to load. I don't undastand why.
yungcditty1 so glad I’m not the only one, I have given up on it now, good luck if you find an answer let me know
@@jenny9249 no doubt. You're not alone, and I'm very tech savvy. I'm waiting for him to say he doesn't understand again. Clearly there's another process that has to happen. Smdh
Mine is a tenth of the normal speed using it as an extender over wifi
I made this video quite a while ago. U probably have 2.4/5 GHz and this extender operates only on 2.4 GHz. You should get something that runs both netowrk types. I made another review of a following Wi-Fi extender th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
Also do u have to plug into the modem??
I do not fully understand the question but if you are asking about LAD cable ? No , you do not need to plug it in if you want to use it as a Wi-Fi repeater, but the device needs to be plugged into the mains socket.
BuyOrBuyNot hey, can i connect the device with a LAN cable? i mean conecting from the modem to the repeater
I have this very same repeater but I have an issue, I just changed my wifi password so it no longer works. I tried reseting the repeater but now on the green screen it does not load, as I type in the user name and password (admin for both) and click log in nothing happens. It just won't go anywhere it stays on the green screen and it does not let me get to the main menu :( what do I do?
I have but not connect always error can u help me how to connec my celphone my wifi repeater
Mine get stucked in a "Obtaining IP" status and doesn't connect. I still don't know why 🤔 could be that my device came bugged or something like that?
Can I use this on my console
Yh
Pls anyone help me as my wifi extender needs factory reset if ineed to switch to another network
How do you run a speed test?
www.speedtest.net/ visit webside and press go
What wifi password do I put in? It keeps saying wrong password when I try to connect to the devices wifi
What do I do if the repeater doesn't pop up on my WiFi when I try to connect
Hello
Please 🙏🏻 if I create a new Wi-Fi area with new SSID -- is possible new different password direct for mode REPEATER (NO as mode AP)

Hello I from Israel can I order it and it will come to me even if there is a corona?
I do not know what is the law in your country, do you have amazon operating in Israel? Did you watch my other review of a different wi fi repeater that operates on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I have one simlar to this (mine has two little antenae on side). Do i have to move all of my devices onto the "new" network -- (old name-plus-4455)
something like this one ? th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
Yes, you have to add these new networks and your devices should connect to the strongest network automatically.
BuyOrBuyNot Thx for reply. Not net gear. Same brand as you reviewed.
can wifi repeater be used if there is a security login page (due to hostel wifi) and we know the login id and password.
It probably can but I cannot bet on it. If you have access to LAN you can always us device of this type as an access point, before buying watch my other video about a different repeater th-cam.com/video/Sc-xe5uZepI/w-d-xo.html
I;m having trouble with mine just getting the plug adapter on
Im having all sorts of trouble setting it up !!! ts not simple or easy as this tutorial seems to suggest but I have asked for further advice above!!
@Alexander Boi Where do you see wi fi on your computer??? I CANT SEE ANYTHING THAT SAYS WI FI repeater on any settings anywhere???
What is your OS?

Nothing but trouble since I bought it, if anything its made it worse!!!
