They will automatically reconnect when
both are switched on, if they are in range.
If the WPS light on the Booster does
not come back on, it may be too far
away from the Router. Bring the Booster
closer to the Router and try again.
• Put your Booster on a shelf or desk,
away from the ground.
• Try to limit the number of walls or
obstructions between the Booster
and the Router. Nearby electronics
can interfere with WiFi as much as
solid walls.
