UPPOON Wi-Fi Extender Setup Instructions

Wi-Fi extenders are typically used in conjunction with routers to extend the range of your network. So, first, make sure you have a compatible router to which you can connect your extender. Since UPPOON extenders are mostly compatible with all popular routers, a few internet searches will tell you if your router is supported by the extender.

Method 1: UPPOON extender installation procedures are simple, so you won’t need any specialized knowledge to get started. So we’ll first show you how to use the WPS button to configure your extender.
