Experience next-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi everywhere The RP-AC52 wireless range extender has powerful internal MIMO antennas that help to eliminate signal dead zones & improve the coverage of any existing wireless router. It works as a repeater, which means it can extend wireless networking to every corner of the home — even to those difficult, hard-to-reach spots. This ensures reliable high-speed internet coverage everywhere for devices such as notebooks, tablets, smartphones, game consoles & smart TVs. RP-AC52 lets you enjoy lag-free gaming & HD multimedia streaming throughout the home. Dual-band concurrent range extender The RP-AC52 gets you true dual-band networking even if you’re on an older single-band router. Double your wireless performance with up to 733 Mbps bandwidth in 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz simultaneously! 2.4 GHz handles daily tasks like web browsing & social networking, while 5 GHz is great for HD video streaming & online gaming. 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz signal strength indicators An LED signal-strength meter on the front of the RP-AC52 wireless range extender shows at a glance the strength of both the 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz signals. We recommend placing the RP-AC52 between the router & the area where you want to extend wireless coverage. The RP-AC52 works best when it is receiving a strong wireless signal from the router, & you can check this using the signal strength indicator on the front panel of the RP-AC52. This shows the signal strength for both frequency bands — the longer the illuminated b&, the stronger the signal. Position the RP-AC52 so that it is as far away from the router as possible but still showing a strong signal level. Range extender & access point modes RP-AC52 has two convenient modes to make it even more flexible. As well as a range extender, it can also work as a wireless access point (AP). In AP mode it can be connected to any wired LAN — for example, a hotel’s internet connection — to create a personal Wi-Fi hotspot, allowing the internet connection to be accessed from laptops, phones or other Wi-Fi devices. AP mode is also handy for adding wireless capability to a router with no built-in Wi-Fi.
