Picking the best spot
The best spot for the repeater is as far from the base as possible while still maintaining a good signal, or near the edge of the base’s coverage area. To find the edge of the coverage area:
1. Stand near the base and make a call on the handset.
2. While on the call, carry the handset away from the base towards the general area where you want to put the repeater.
3. Watch the signal strength icon on the handset. Make a note where the icon drops from 4 bars to
3 bars.
4.Continue walking away from the base. Make a note where the signal strength icon drops from 3 bars to 2 or if you start to hear noise on the line (which indicates the signal is getting weaker).
5.Place the repeater anywhere inside the range where the signal strength icon showed 3 bars and the handset had a clear signal with no noise.
Testing the location
Connect the repeater's AC adapter and make sure the LINK light comes on and steady. If the light flashes, the repeater
is not getting a good signal. The repeater may be too far away from the base, there may be interference from electronic devices, or the signal might be blocked by thick walls or metal objects. Try moving the repeater to another location.
