If your smart device is not connected to the wireless router with a Wi-Fi connection, the Wireless Audio - Multiroom will not

appear on the Samsung Multiroom app.

Place the HUB that is in Repeater mode in an appropriate location between the Wireless Audio - Multiroom and the HUB that

is connected to the wireless router.

You can set only one HUB to Repeater mode.
