Tips & Tricks
Optimizing Wireless LAN for
TV Reception
When a wireless connection is
established by WPS, the FRITZ!WLAN
Repeater DVB-C and your Internet router
receive the same wireless radio network
name (SSID) and the same network key.
As a result, your mobile devices will
always connect with whichever has the
stronger signal, no matter where they are
located in your home. On the edges of
your wireless network the signal transit
time may be too long for the TV signal,
which is detrimental to the quality of the
picture received. In this case, connect
your mobile devices manually with the
wireless network of the FRITZ!WLAN
Repeater DVB-C.
 Open the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater
DVB-C user interface.
 Select "WLAN / Radio Network" and
assign a new SSID for the wireless
network of the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater
DVB-C.
 In the wireless LAN software of your
mobile device, select the wireless
network (SSID) of your FRITZ!WLAN
Repeater DVB-C.
Avoiding Overlapping
Wireless Networks
If the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater DVB-C and
your Internet router are not far enough
apart from each other, wireless networks
may overlap and be detrimental to your
wireless connection. If needed, connect
the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater DVB-C using a
LAN cable (see page 18).
