    TKS Bianca,     MODEL WN3000RP-100AUS  it connects to all wifi equipped appliances no problem, but my Swann CCTV must be connected by ethernet cable [ no wifi ]. when connecting via ethernet cable there is no connection. As I don't have a router I use my hotspot for data transfer.  Graeme

      Hi gman2

       

      Please describe the LED status of the extender. Can you please wired a different device / computer to the extender to test the connection?
