Getting Started
The NETGEAR WiFi Range Extender increases the distance of a WiFi
network by boosting the existing WiFi signal and enhancing the overall
signal quality over long distances. An extender repeats the signals from an
existing WiFi router or access point.

Use the Extender in Extender Mode
In extender mode, the extender repeats the signals from an existing WiFi
router or access point. Place the extender, supply power, make sure that
the extender is in extender mode, and connect it to your WiFi network.
Place the Extender and Supply Power
1. Place your extender in the same room as your WiFi router.
Proximity to the WiFi router is required only during the initial setup
process.
2. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet.
Wait for the Power LED to light green. This might take up to 60
seconds. If the Power LED does not light, press the Power On/Off
button on the side of the extender.
Check the Extender Mode
To make sure that the extender is in extender mode, check to see if the
WPS/Mode LED is solid green. If the WPS/Mode LED is off, press the
WPS/Mode button for more than five seconds.
When the extender is in extender mode, the WPS/Mode LED and Power
LED blink and then light solid green.

Connect to an Existing WiFi Network
To extend the range of your WiFi network, you must connect the extender
to your existing WiFi network. You can do this in one of two ways:
• Connect with WPS. For more information, see the following section.
• Connect with the NETGEAR installation assistant. For more
information, see Connect With the NETGEAR Installation Assistant on
page 9.
Connect With WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you join a secure WiFi network without
typing the network name and password.
Note: WPS does not support WEP network security. If you are using WEP
security, follow the instructions in Connect With the NETGEAR Installation
Assistant on page 9.
1. Press the WPS/Mode button on the extender for less than five
seconds until the WPS/Mode LED blinks.
Note: If you press the WPS/Mode button for more than five
seconds, the extender switches to access point mode. When the
extender switches to access point mode, the WPS/Mode LED and
Power LED blink and then the WPS/Mode LED turns o and the
Power LED lights solid green.
7
2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router or access
point.
When the extender connects to your existing WiFi network, the WPS
LED on the extender lights solid green and the Router Link LED lights.
If the Router Link LED does not light, try again. If it still does not light,
see Connect With the NETGEAR Installation Assistant on page 9.
3. If your WiFi router supports the 5 GHz band, repeat Steps 1 and 2 to
connect the extender to the 5 GHz band.
4. Unplug the extender and move it to a new location that is about
halfway between your router and the area with a poor router WiFi
signal.
The location that you choose must be within the range of your
existing WiFi router network.
5. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet and wait for the Power LED
to light green.
6. Use the Router Link LED to help you choose a spot where the
extender-to-router connection is optimal.
7. If the Router Link LED doesn’t light amber or green, plug the extender
into an outlet closer to the router and try again.
Keep moving the extender to outlets closer to the router until the
Router Link LED lights amber or green.
8
8. On your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device, find and connect to
a new extender WiFi network.
The extender creates two new extender WiFi networks. The
extender’s new WiFi network names are based on your existing WiFi
network name, with _2GEXT and _5GEXT at the end of the name.
For example:
• Existing WiFi network name. MyNetworkName
• New extender WiFi network names. MyNetworkName_2GEXT
and MyNetworkName_5GEXT
Use the same WiFi password that you use for your WiFi router.
9. Test the new extender WiFi range by moving your WiFi-enabled
computer or mobile device to the area with a poor router WiFi signal:
a. Leave your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device in the area
with a poor router WiFi signal and return to the extender.
b. Check the Device Link LED on the extender:
• If the Device Link LED is solid green or amber, your new
extender WiFi network reaches the area with a poor router
WiFi signal and your network setup is complete.

• If the Device Link LED is red, your new extender WiFi
network does not reach the area with a poor router WiFi
signal.
You must move your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile
device closer to the extender until the Device Link LED turns
solid green or amber.
Connect With the NETGEAR Installation Assistant
1. On a WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device, open the WiFi
connection manager and find and connect to the extender network
called NETGEAR_EXT.
When you are connected to the extender, the Device Link LED lights.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. Enter www.mywifiext.net in the address field of the browser.
The New Extender Setup page displays.
4. Click the NEW EXTENDER SETUP button.
The Create Account page displays.
5. Complete the fields on the Create Account page and click the NEXT
button.
A message displays saying that the extender is set to extender mode.

6. Click the NO button if you want to continue with the extender mode
setup.
The extender searches for WiFi networks in your area and displays a
list.
7. Select a WiFi network to extend and click the NEXT button.
If you do not want to extend both WiFi bands, clear the 2.4GHz WiFi
Networks or the 5GHz WiFi Networks check box.
8. In the Password (network key) field, type the existing WiFi network
password (also called passphrase or security key) and click the NEXT
button.
9. Set the network name (SSID) and password for your extender and
click the NEXT button.
Note: We recommend that you use a different network name (SSID)
for your extender from the network name (SSID) that your router
uses.
Wait for the page to display a list of new extender WiFi networks,
which might take up to one minute.
10. Connect your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the new
extender WiFi network using the extender SSID and password that
you created in Step 9.
11. Make sure that your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device is
successfully connected before you click the CONTINUE button.
