Since an AP with 2 or more antennas provides better performance,
we recommend purchasing a wireless AP with 2 or more antennas.

Connect to the AP on a smartphone and check if you can connect to
the Internet. If you can connect to the Internet, the AP is normal.

Check if the LEDs on the AP are blinking. If all the LEDs are turned

If the AP doesn't seem to be working properly, request after-sales

If the Internet can be accessed inside of the house, the feature is
