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.

Existing WiFi

Sometimes your router

does not provide the WiFi

coverage you need.

Install the WiFi Extender

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.

Note: Proximity to the WiFi router is required only during the

initial setup process.

2. Connect the power adapter to the extender and plug it into an

electrical outlet.

The Power LED lights solid amber while it is booting and then

solid green when it is powered on. If the Power LED does not

light, press the Power button.

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 9.

•Connect with the genie® Smart Setup. For more information,

see Connect with NETGEAR genie Smart Setup on page 11.

Connect with WPS

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you easily join a secure WiFi

network without typing the network name and password.

WPS does not support WEP network security. If you are using WEP

security, follow the instructions in Connect with NETGEAR genie

Smart Setup on page 11.

1. Press the WPS button on the extender.

The WPS LED blinks.

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

point.

The WPS LED and the 2.4 GHz Link Rate LED on your extender

light solid green, and the extender connects to your existing WiFi

network.

Note: If the 2.4 GHz Link Rate LED does not light, or the LED is

blinking amber, try again. If it still does not light, see Connect with

NETGEAR genie Smart Setup on page 11.

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 extender network name.

The extender’s wireless network name (SSID) changes to your

existing WiFi network name, with _2GEXT or _5GEXT at the end

of the name, depending on whether the extender is connecting to

your WiFi network in 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz.

For example:

•Existing WiFi network name. MyNetworkName

•New extender network name. MyNetworkName_2GEXT

MyNetworkName_5GEXT

5. Connect your WiFi devices to the new extender 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 you choose must be within the range of your existing

WiFi router network.

7. Plug the extender into an electrical outlet.

The Power LED lights solid amber while it is booting and then

solid green when it is powered on. If the Power LED does not

light, press the Power button.

Use the Link Rate LEDs on the front panel to help you

choose a spot where the extender-to-router connection is

optimal.
