7. Кыйынчылыктарды

• Кубат жок:
  Ensure the power adapter and PoE converter are correctly connected and receiving power. Check the power LED indicator on the device.
• Интернетке кирүү жок:
  Verify that the Ethernet cable from your main router/modem is securely connected to the WAN/LAN port of the WAVLINK extender. Check the WAN/LAN LED indicator. Ensure your main internet connection is active. If in Repeater mode, ensure the extender is successfully connected to your main Wi-Fi network.
• Poor Signal/Speed:
  The WAN/LAN port supports a maximum of 100Mbps. If your internet speed exceeds this, the extender will cap it at 100Mbps. Ensure the device is positioned optimally, avoiding obstructions. While the device supports dual-band, some users have reported inconsistent performance on the 2.4GHz band; try connecting devices to the 5GHz band if possible.
• Кирүү мүмкүн эмес Web Башкаруу барагы (192.168.10.1):
  Ensure your device (computer/phone) is connected to the extender's Wi-Fi network or directly via Ethernet. Verify that your device's IP settings are set to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP). Try clearing your browser's cache or using a different browser. If issues persist, perform a factory reset by holding the reset button for 8 seconds.
• Security Concerns (HTTP vs HTTPS):
  Some users have noted the web interface uses HTTP instead of HTTPS. While this is common for local network device management, be aware that configuration traffic is not encrypted. Ensure your local network is secure.
