If the Smart Signal LED has a single amber bar after the connection process has finished, the DAP-1325 has established a poor-quality connection. To improve the connection quality, the DAP-1325 should be relocated to a wall outlet closer to the source wireless router or AP. The more lit bars on the Signal LED, the better the wireless signal.
