WRE6606 User’s Guide

In Repeater mode (see 

), you can select the type of WPS behavior: Normal 

Mode, Range Boost, or Speed Boost mode.

The device enables you to extend the range of your dual-band router to eliminate "dead spots" in 
your wireless network. You can choose from normal mode, range boost, or speed boost modes for 
both your 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks.

The following terms are used to describe the WPS behavior:

• Up: The connection from the WRE6606 to the Router

• Down: The connection from the WRE6606 to a client

Figure 71   Normal Mode with Up and Down Broadcasting 

• Home wireless network: 2.4G SSID = Home2.4G_2.4GEXT; 5G SSID = Home5G_5GEXT.

• Work wireless network: 2.4G SSID = Work2.4G_2.4GEXT; 5G SSID = Work5G_5GEXT.

• No profile: There is no currently defined profile. 

The following section describes the Normal, Range Boost, and Speed Boost mode (WPS) behaviors 
in a home and work network connection.

As connection profiles are established, the WRE6606 maintains a record of the varying profiles and 
automatically joins the network when in range.

Note: The home wireless network is the initial setup environment. The 

WRE6606

 does not 

have any established network profiles at the time of initial setup.

In normal mode, both Down and Up WPS behaviors are supported for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 
bands.
