What is a Wireless Extender?

The DAP-1320 acts as a repeater to extend the range of an existing wireless network to provide better signal for parts of your home or office that may have poor or no reception. Your existing wireless signal will be re-broadcast by the DAP-1320, allowing you to reach the farthest corners of your home or office . The extended network can simply use the same network credentials as the existing network, or you can specify a different network name and password, giving you the flexibility to control network access.
