Updated on Jul 13, 2014 by Tuan Do

Amped Wireless is a brand famous for manufacturing high-end networking products and one of its most popular series is Wi-fi range extender. Last year, we reviewed the REC10 and now we are trying the new version, REC15A.

The REC15A is being sold on Amazon for $99, we will have an insightful review of the product soon. This article will show you how to set up the REC15A.

Step 1: Connect to the REC15A

After attach the antenna to the extender, you will need to find a good location to place the unit. It should be somewhere between your router and dead zone. Make sure it is close enough to get a strong signal from your router.

The range extender will be turned on automatically after you plug it in a power outlet. Now, open your computer and connect to the new Wi-fi network, it could be named Amped_REC15A_2.4 or Amped_REC15A_5.0.

Step 2: Access Dashboard

After connecting, open your web browser (Chrome, Safari and Google Chrome are recommended) and enter this address:
