WN1000RP Connection question

Hi, Currently bought a WN1000RP to extend my current SSID. I've changed its name to ensure It is the same but have a question....

 

How can I tell if a device is connected to the network SSID or my main Virgin superhub..? I want to ensure it's actually working and flipping automatically between the two devices whilst wakling around the house.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Mike

    Hello reddevilmeuk

     

    I believe you would have to test your download speeds because if your connected to the extender you will see your download speed to be slower which is normal when you extend a wifi connection.
