Title: DAP 1320 Connection Drop - Help!
Post by: dylan237 on April 07, 2015, 06:45:59 PM

I recently purchased a DLINK DAP-1320 wifi extender, it works amazing, aside from the fact that my wireless devices lose connection very briefly, I'd say about 3-5 seconds. When connected to DAP, signal strength is excellent, the connection drop is the issue in facing. Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated, and thanks do your time!

• Ensure the default (dlink) SSID name is changed. Ensure that different SSID names are used between each WiFi 2.4/5Ghz radios. Can be anything and not something that's already in use by any neighbouring WiFi routers. Under Setup/Wireless/Manual.
• What wireless modes are you using on the main host router?
• 2.4Ghz Routers only: Try single mode G or N or mixed G and N?

Whats the distance between the DAP and the main host router?
