hi and welcome back to this bite for you chances are if you have a cell phone a laptop a tablet
you're going to have wi-fi and then chances also are somewhere in your house where you want to be
where you want to spend all of your time there's a dead spot it could be in bed it could be in
your office it could be outside somewhere you have a dead spot that you just want that wi-fi
don't worry my friends in this video we're going to be doing an unboxing and then setup
of the rockspace ac 1200 wi-fi extender this is supposed to fill those gaps those dead spots
and get you all the wi-fi you need so anyway come over here real quick as i do the unboxing
explain a few things set it up and show you some use all right so here we are again the rockspace
ac 1200 wi-fi extender you can see that right over there ac 1200 dual band wi-fi repeater so
2.4 and 5g signal you can see that right over here works with any wi-fi router easy setup
and i'm going to show you all that in this video and then back here it shows you
basically how it's going to work here's your existing wi-fi router the cut the areas it covers
the most important spaces and then setting up the ac 1200 in those other spaces just inside range
so that you can amplify that signal across your house and here are a little information
high speed simultaneous dual band wi-fi for better connection strong wi-fi signal
all that good stuff don't worry about it i'll cover it so let's go ahead open it up
100 original product
okay so nothing else in that the rest is right here in this plain white box
okay here we have the repeater itself i'm going to put this away or the extender itself
i'm going to put this away for one second to see what else we have in here
quick installation guide and then don't worry we're going to cover all this but
just want to show you they got you covered
power on the repeater extend your wi-fi relocate the repeater extending your wi-fi using
wps we'll be going over power on the repeater this part over here we won't be utilizing wps
relocate the repeater after you set it up and then some faqs okay just putting this away
and then we have the repeater itself this is a nice looking repeater
just plain black mesh or not mesh matte sorry we can see right over here whoops
it's upside down signal wps power wps and then here we have the antennas
and then over here over here down here and then up at the top the top some vents so it could
breathe we all need to breathe and then we have an ethernet connection right over here that way
if you're in an area that gets wi-fi but you don't have an ethernet connection you can plug
that into here then you can plug the other side into your desktop and i'll go over that as well
all right so let's get started on this all right so first thing we're going to do is
just plug this guy into an outlet and when it's plugged in they'll all turn on then we'll see
power okay and now on a wireless device like your phone we'll go ahead and connect to that
access point right over here come into wi-fi okay and then we'll click on rockspace underscore xt
now it'll say rockspace underscore x connected no signal now it wants us to log into here
so to create a password one sec would i do that
okay after i've created it just click next it's scanning for wi-fi networks again
all right now it wants to see which one to repeat off of or which to extend we're going to select
the top one i know that's the one that works the best it shows the strongest signal right over here
and then i'll enter in that password one sec then extend
all right extended successfully so now we have research 21-0 underscore x and research 21-0
underscore 5-g e-x-t okay now it's connecting to the one i had before well because it works
perfectly here but in other areas it's going to connect to this so let's go ahead and plug it into
an area that we don't get very much wifi i thought you're gonna come in through that door so out here
i don't get any signal if i move like like that i might get signal
i don't always get it sorry i'm outside there's kids playing but
so this is exactly what we need that extender for so let's go ahead plug that in real quick
and let's see how it works out here all right so the staircase divides the house right there
is my office then right outside there where i've taken you already is outside where my dead spot is
sorry for the echo but we're gonna go ahead and put the ac 1200 right in that outlet right there
where you can see my dog's head so let's go put it over there real quick all right so for
here we just go ahead and connect that right up here now we're going to notice one bar of light
right over here that's just letting you know there's power so we have to wait a few seconds
for the top one to appear that'll let us know that we actually have wi-fi signal and i'll go ahead
and open up my phone real quick okay so now on network and wi-fi opening up research 21 okay now
we see research 21-0 underscore comes out and the 5g as well so let me put in my password one sec
all right research 21-0 underscore 5g
x is connected sweet so then we'll go ahead and open up the
speed test
and we'll hit go
look at that that's on 5g that is beautiful i have a gigabit so
of course the further you are away from it the slower it's going to go
so we're right next to it so in a second let's see how it looks like outside all right so now that
we're outside we can see we're still connected to the 5g x so let's go back over here and click go
we're not getting 150 but we're getting real close to it that's beautiful now out here without the 5g
x or the 2g x we only get one we get connection we only get about 30 megabits per second
you can see here we're getting over a hundred that's amazing and everywhere i move here i get
it um the one without the 2g or 5g x if i move over here it's gone but if i move maybe here
or right up against the wall it'll work so i don't have to worry about that now
so let's see how it works like on the desktop alright so now for the desktop we'll go ahead
and plug that guy in again we'll wait till it shows that it's connected to wi-fi
we could already see over here no internet on the desktop and we are not connected to
anything whatsoever over here so i have the network connection the network cable
that's connected to the pc so i'm just waiting for that to come online
all right so it's online
all right so now on the whoa that was quick so on the desktop it connected real quick so then
ookla opens up and i'm i'm amazed that it went that quick so just click go here
and like we were getting outside or almost outside we're getting about a hundred megs per second up
or down should i say and up we're going to get around 100 megabytes or megabits as well that's
pretty impressive again this is all going through wi-fi so i'm pretty impressed with the results
so we did an unboxing and i showed you how to use the rockspace ac 1200 extender
honestly i didn't expect much from it i've used a ton of these type of things in the past i've
never really gotten good results i'm kind of amazed what i got on this 2g 5g whatever you get
you're gonna get connected you saw how quick it connected on the desktop i was honestly blown away
turn my i connected turn my head it's connected it's done that's pretty awesome so let me know
what you think down in the comments below were you impressed at how quick how easy it was to connect
not only a cell phone but a desktop outside inside outside for me is if not a dead zone i'll get
about 20 or 30 megabits per second and then while i'm browsing no internet connection so frustrating
so you know i can't take music out there or you know something streaming i just can't
do it out there i need to be on cellular you may not have that you know i may not have that
but now we have wi-fi all throughout the house so that's pretty awesome i'm going to have links
down below where you can pick one up it's actually incredibly affordable and again let me know what
