about halfway between your router and the area with a poor WiFi

signal. The extender must be within the range of your WiFi router

network.

In access point mode, your extender creates a new WiFi hotspot by

using a wired Ethernet connection.

Install the extender in extender mode

1. Set the Access Point/Extender switch to Extender .

2. For initial setup, place your extender in the same room as your

WiFi router.

On/Off button on the extender.

Continue with installation, using one of these methods:

• To connect your extender using WPS, see the following

section.

assistant, see Connect the extender to your WiFi network using

the NETGEAR installation assistant on page 9.

NETGEAR installation assistant on page 9.

Note: If your router supports the 5 GHz band and your

extender didn’t connect to that band, repeat the WPS process.

about halfway between your router and the area with a poor

router WiFi signal.

The extender must be within the range of your WiFi router

network.

4. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet and wait for the

Power LED to light green.

5. Use the Router Link LED to nd a spot where the

extender-to-router connection is optimal.

6. 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.

7. Connect your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the

WiFi network.
