Configure Touch P5 as a
Repeater
This chapter introduces how to connect and configure your Touch P5 in
repeater
mode
which will extend the existing wireless coverage by repeating the wireless
signal. We recommend that you use repeater mode when you want a larger wireless
coverage to eliminate “dead zones”. You can also use Touch P5 as an adapter to
connect any Ethernet-enabled device (such as a Blu-ray player, game console, DVR, or
smart TV) to your Wi-Fi network.

3. 1.
Quick Setup
Touch P5 supports two configuration methods:
Web-based utility
and
Touchscreen
utility
.
Web-based utility
includes the configuration for all functions, and it requires a
connection (wired or wireless) between your Touch P5 and the device you are using
to log into the web management page.
Touchscreen utility
supports configuration for
most commonly used functions, and the configuration can be easily done within a few
taps on the touchscreen.
In this chapter, we will introduce most of the configuration through the touchscreen
utility.
3. 1. 1.
Option 1: Through Touchscreen Utility (Recommended)
The Quick Setup app on the touchscreen will guide you through the process to connect
your Touch P5 to the host network and set up its extended network.
1.
Install the antennas and position them vertically.
2.
Plug your Touch P5’s power adapter into an electrical outlet
near
your host router.
Turn it on and wait until the system boot on the screen completes.
3.
On the menu screen, tap the
Mode Selection
icon to start it.
4.
Select
Repeater
mode and tap
Save
.
Note:
Your Touch P5 will reboot to make your changes take effect, and please do
NOT
operate during the
process.
