• Plug the Range Extender into a standard indoor wall outlet that is centrally located between your Ring Alarm Base Station and the Ring Alarm components you wish to extend coverage to.
• Avoid placing the extender in areas with significant metal obstructions or thick concrete walls, as these can interfere with Z-Wave signals.
• If extending coverage to an outdoor sensor or a separate structure, placing the extender in an enclosed outdoor outlet or near an exterior wall closest to the device can improve signal strength.
