Linksys WAP1200AC AC1200 Wi-Fi  The  Linksys WAP1200AC AC1200 Wi-Fi Access Point  is the latest in the AC-series access points, which utilizes the  Cross Band technology.  It can be used as a  Wireless Range Extender  or a  Wired Access Point.  Both functions maximize simultaneous use of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands for high-speed data transfer, uninterrupted streaming, and gaming.   Front Panel    Antenna positioning is done depending on the type of home you have. IMPORTANT:   The antennas are fixed and can  ONLY  rotate at  180 degrees.  Do  NOT  force the antennas too far back, otherwise, they will break. For  Single-story homes  -   Both antennas should be pointing  down. NOTE:   For illustration purposes, the Linksys RE6700 is used in this example. For  Multi-story homes  -  One (1)  antenna should  always be pointing down  to provide coverage for the current floor.  The second antenna (any antenna) should be positioned differently  depending  on where the Linksys WAP1200AC is located and where the coverage is needed. NOTE:   For the most part, position one (1) antenna at  45 degrees  as shown in  Position   A  below.  If there are issues with coverage, move the antenna at about  50-55 degrees  down as shown in  Position   B.    Position A  can be used if the Linksys WAP1200AC is in the  middle  of the house.   Position B  can be used if the Linksys WAP1200AC is connected to an outlet located at the  farther side  of the house.   Side Panel    Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS)  button – Uses the WPS technology to automatically and securely add wireless devices to your network.  Reset  button – Press and hold for  10 seconds  to reset the Linksys WAP1200AC to factory default settings.   Bottom Panel    ETHERNET  port – Connect an Ethernet-enabled device to the network using either a  Cat 5  or  6  Ethernet cable.   Product Features Concurrent dual-band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) 802.11ac Wireless technology Compatible with 802.11 a/b/g/n Data Rate of up to 300 Mbps for 2.4 GHz and up to 867 Mbps for 5 GHz Two (2)  external non-detachable antennas 2 x 2 Spatial Streams One (1)  10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet port with auto MDIX sensing Spot Finder technology (on Range Extender Mode only) Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS) Browser-based Setup (BBS) Cross Band technology  (on Range Extender Mode only) Beamforming technology LED Behaviors  Power / WPS LED: OFF  – There is no power on the Linksys WAP1200AC.
