[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1547073, member: 38928"] It's tricky without a manufacturer to go with but try this: 1. plug the repeater into a wall socket and connect it to your Mac Mini using an ethernet cable 2. temporarily turn off wifi on your Mac 3. Open Safari and enter "192.168.10.1" - no quotes into the address bar and hit enter 4. You should get a popup asking for a username and password enter "adm" no quotes into both 5. This is where it gets wooly, without full device details it's hard to give specifics 6. What you're trying to do is detect your existing wireless network and enter the password for it. 7. On a repeater that's all you should need to do. Save the settings if the option exists and close safari. 8. Disconnect the ethernet cable and re-enable wifi on your Mac 9. plug the repeater into a wall socket in the desired location 10. You should now get a further reaching wifi signal as the repeater re-broadcasts your existing wifi. [/QUOTE]
