The perfect placement of the extender plays a vital role in its performance. That’s why you must be aware of its location during and after the Linksys WiFi extender setup. While configuring it, you must place it near the router for a successful and strong connection between them. Whereas, after completing the setup, you can relocate the extender where you are facing slow internet speed. In doing so, the extender will work to remove the WiFi dead spots by covering them with signals. However, try to choose an area that must be free from electrical appliances, and metallic things which can interrupt the signal transmission.
