Quick Start

AC750 WiFi Range Extender

Model EX3800

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

Place the extender, apply power, and connect it to your WiFi network.

Place the Extender and Apply 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. If the Power LED does not light,

press the Power On/O button on the extender.

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 Connect with WPS on

page 7.

• Connect with web browser setup. For more information, see

Connect with Web Browser Setup 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 Web Browser Setup on

page 9.

1. Press the WPS button on the side panel of the extender.

The WPS LED blinks.

2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router or access

point.

The WPS LED on the extender lights solid green, the Router Link LED

lights, and the extender connects to your existing WiFi network.

If the Router Link LED does not light, try again. If it still does not light,

see Connect with Web Browser Setup 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. Find the new extended WiFi network name on your computer or WiFi

device.

The extender creates two new extended 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 extended WiFi network names. MyNetworkName_2GEXT

and MyNetworkName_5GEXT

5. Connect your computer or WiFi devices to the new extended WiFi

network.

Use the same WiFi password that you use for your WiFi router.

6. Unplug the extender and move it to a new location closer to the area

with a poor WiFi signal.

The location that you choose must be within the range of your

existing WiFi router network.

7. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet.

Wait for the Power LED to light green. If the Power LED does not light,

press the Power On/O button on the extender.

8. Use the Router Link LED on the front panel to help you choose a spot

where the extender-to-router connection is optimal.

Connect with Web Browser Setup

1. Use a WiFi network manager on a computer or WiFi device to ﬁnd and

connect to the NETGEAR_EXT (SSID) WiFi network.

Aer the connection with the computer or WiFi device is established,

the Device Link LED lights.

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.

10. Use a WiFi network manager on the computer or WiFi device to

connect to the new extended WiFi network.

Repeat this step for all of your computers and WiFi devices.
