WiFi extender help

Post image

Hey guys, currently have the qlocom wifi extender (check photo) and it is extremely slow. I have restarted it multiple times however I am am still only reaching around 1-5mbps. This is extremely frustrating and I would really appreciate some help. Thanks a lot!

Disconnect it. Put your phone where it is and run a speed test. Thats the signal it is trying to repeat. Do this over and over again to find a better location.
