Learn About The Lights

There are five different lights on the Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender. The first light indicates the status of the power, while the rest of the lights indicate the WiFi connection strength.

The first light will be green when you turn on your Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender. If this light is flashing green, it means that there is no problem with your power supply. The second light is blue and indicates that your Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender has connected to a router and can send or receive data through it.

When this light is off, it means that your Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender cannot connect to any router at all. The third light is orange and shows that your Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender is connected to another device through an Ethernet cable.

The fourth light is red and indicates that something went wrong with your network configuration or setup process for some reason. If this happens, try turning off your Wavlink AC1200 WiFi extender and then turning it back on again.

The color of the signal LED will tell you how strong the signal you have. A solid blue means you have the best connection. Yellow means you have a good connection. Red means that you’re too far away and you’ll need to move the extender closer to your home router.
