NO, thats a N mode extender so it would only connect to the 2.4Ghz radio on the 868L.

Hey one last question, can i use my N wireless range extender TP Link
for my wifes macbook air with AC?

Ok thought so:)

Well there was no disconnetion with the mac air yesterday
so maybe i have found some good settings?

But can't still figure out how to see the ac perfomance on
inssid program? Is there a newer version with ac so i can
see the graph too?

I won't do a firmware upgrade now when all seems to
just work ok:)

Do you think the settings are fine from the pictures?

I recommend that you rename the SSID to something more unique.

Use InSSIDer application to see hows around you and find a open and clear channel, 11, 6 or 1 is preferred.

Use modes only that are being used and supported by all of your devices. If you don't use A, B or G modes, then use single mode N only. WPA2/AES only is preferred security mode. Try Auto TPIK/AES if needed.

You'll have to check back with the Mfr of the InSSIDer program for AC support. I was told that it's not supported as of yet.

Good Luck.

Hi well i have an ssid called Dlink but the last numbers i erased
before i uploaded the images:)

And maybe should try the security mode TKIP AES instead.

Doesn't matter that the inssid can't display ac graph yet:)

Thank's man you are so helpfull:)

For most things that I have, I use WPA2/AES only since all my current devices support it. I use Single mode N only on 2.4Ghz and Mixed all Modes on 5Ghz.

Play with some of the settings and see. Also placement of the router centrally on the main floor of any building is important. Better broadcast foot print.

Ya, the program needs updating by the Mfr...we are all waiting on that. 

Enjoy.

Hi weird, the wifes mac keeps falling off every day now 2 or 3 times?

I'll try the  AES/TPIK an another channel!

But forgot to say we had the same problem with the mac air on
the old dir655 ??

[FurryNutz]
